Hello, everyone. The meeting will answer your questions. What happens if cover doesn't buy copyright? do you want copyright if you add cover? many people don't know this yet. Now let's take a look at it.

Answer:

1. If it is stated in the published cover that the source of the cover does not need to purchase the copyright of the song, it does not constitute infringement; for music works that have been published, some authors claim that cover singing is not allowed; but if there is no special statement from the songwriter, generally speaking, other authors do not need to specifically authorize the distribution of the cover, but need to pay an appropriate fee, which is one of the statutory licensing cases stipulated in the copyright Law.

2. Song authorization:

3. For songs, it is easy to simply think that the copyright of the song belongs to the singer, but this understanding is wrong; in fact, the copyright owner of the complete musical work that can finally be appreciated by the singer is not the singer, but the songwriter of the song. So singers don't have any rights? Yes, for the singer, he is the performer of this song, so he will have the performer's right; the performer's right is a kind of deductive right, which does not belong to the narrow sense of copyright or copyright, and the scope of protection is relatively limited. The object of protection is to protect the specific version sung by the singer, so it can not be extended to the protection of the whole work. Some software allows you to send cover songs, perhaps because they have been authorized by the songwriter of the work.

This is the end of this article. I hope it will be helpful to all of you.
