What is a Copyright?

A copyright is a form of intellectual property that gives the creator of an original work the exclusive right to copy, distribute, adapt, display, and perform a creative work. Copyrights are automatically created when someone creates an original work of authorship that is fixed in a tangible form, thus, the idea itself is not copyrightable.
