TITLE 17 > CHAPTER 1 > ยง 101: Copies are material objects, other than phonorecords, in which a work is fixed by any method now known or later developed, and from which the work can be perceived, reproduced, or otherwise communicated, either directly or with the aid of a machine or device. The term copies includes the material object, other than a phonorecord, in which the work is first fixed. > Because of the content to which you have no claim of ownership. The only sense in which one may "own content" is as shorthand for "own the copyright". And one can certainly own copies of a work without owning the copyright in it. If I create a copy of a work in which you own the copyright out of materials I own I may infringe your copyright in doing so but I still own the copy. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI USA _______________________________________________ Gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
