I've been copyrighting my work for years ... but there's also a Phonorecord type of copyright to protect your recording of a composition. You'll see most commercial CD's have both symbols on the back (circle C for copyright, and circle P for phonorecord).

So my question - if I'm producing finished recordings (mostly original, sometimes a cover version) for use in film / tv, or libraries ... should I be registering my works as phonorecords in addition to the copyright?

Thanks! Jim

I always copyright using Form SR. It is my understanding that that covers both the copyright of the song (circle c) and also the sound recording (circle p).

Thanks Theresa,

Apacolypse Cow! Now that is good! I love that! HA!
