Hi, what I was wondering was this. When you post a song to this forum should you have all your songs copyrighted? I have been using band in a box for a long time and at first I used it for doing covers, but, I know that you're not supposed to post links to covers or anything on this website. So, I started doing a lot of Originals since I found that out, but, I didn't know whether it would be safe to post them here if they don't have a copyright through the Library of Congress? So, do any of you have an answer to this question? Should I copyright all my original material before I posted on this forum? I know that if you have a time time date stamp on the date of the original creation of the song that it's considered copyrighted. But, should I do a copyright through the Library of Congress for stronger protection to make sure these songs are copyrighted? And if any of the moderators read this post can you please answer it also? A long time ago I used to copyright a lot of my originals when it was more affordable, but it's gotten so much more expensive even with the copyright office to do it online that sometimes you wonder whether it's worth copywriting at all or if you should just let caution blow to the wind. Anybody that has any suggestions for me I would appreciate that thank you very much and happy band in a box creating.

Music is an expression that is a universal language, Never criticize anybody to harshly. They need time to grow but when they do, they do. Always be kind in what you say and do because the man upstairs is watching.
