Bob:
Copyright those tunes!
Check out the Library of Congress site for easy info:
US Copyright office (in LOC):
Got your own publishing company? Cheeck out BMI:
You can simply submit a copy (CD) of the work you plan to
publish to the Copyright Office of the Library of
Congress...once they recieve a copy of your work, there is
a traceable record of your copyright claim and copyright
date. Once you create a copy of any work, it is considered
"published".
BMI is a cool organisation to help you collect any
publishing royalties if your tune ends up selling well or
garnering airplay.
well there are the shoe-string basics...
good luck,
dp
