Copyright

Definition: a Copyright is a form of intellectual property. It is a legal concept giving the creator of an original work exclusive rights to it, usually for a limited time.
Generally it involves the "right to copy". Depending on the (inter)national jurisdiction, normally the C holder also has the right to be credited for his/her work, to determine who may adapt the work to other forms, who may perform the work, who may financially benefit from it, and other similar rights.
In business, a C is an intangible asset.
