Actually, it being a cover has no technical legal effect. "The subject
matter of copyright as specified by section 102 includes compilations and
derivative works" A cover is a derivative work, and according to this
clause in section 103, derivative works are granted the same protection as
originals.
Yay legal nitpicking! I hope you all find this interesting or something. If
you just find it irritating or counterproductive, please tell me to shut up.
