Until and unless the creation is not sold in the market the owner can exercise his control in his domain, but once creation is sold in the market it becomes public domain. The owner of the copy can further use it for use it for sale, lending for giving gift to somebody else or even have the right to destroy it. This principle is called First Sale Doctrine. The item can range from CD or DVD or even a book. The creators most of the time are against such doctrines as it grabs their right to control their creations. Any author loses the right over his book once he sells a copy of it the market. The copyright doctrine gives the owner of the copy full control over the content that he purchases.
Again this perception also may vary according to the laws of different countries. As for example, when a copyrighted book is sold to a different country, it gives the creator to have the control over the market. The first sale doctrine helps the owner to stop duplication of the item but it can be transferred from one person to the other.The doctrine has tremendously helped the libraries who lend books or CDs, DVDs to different users. It has also worked as a boon for the second hand bookstores. The term First Sale Doctrine was coined in the US where it is used extensively. In some other countries this is also termed as Exhaustion rule. Exhaustion refers to the notion that once an item or material is sold to a party, the authors or the creators control over the item gets exhausted. The concept is sometimes used in broader sense and extended for other Intellectual Property Rights such as Patent and Trademark.
Judas Priest – Breaking The Law
What is the probability that the Arizona immigration law is vetoed?
What is the probability of immigration law Arizona again be annulled by Obama? Just curious. Because I really hate to see it happen.
Absolutely zero. The president is not allowed to veto laws state. Only the Supreme Court.
