A claim made by
a concept's creator or owner that said concept is theirs and theirs alone. Use of copyright is protected legally, but many people feel that the concept is
ethically invalid - leading to the rise of Internet file-sharing. Often
cited using a © symbol, followed by a year.

a lame excuse to
rake in as much cash as one can, while keeping the others at
bay
Example:
yo dude, if you break the copyright law and burn that
cd,
Metalica will not be able to afford that other
beachhouse they've always wanted!

The right to
copy. Mistaken by corporate fatasses as a way of preventing the
sharing of
material, especially material bought by someone else.
Example:
There goes the
RIAA with its bullshit copyright
laws. It's trying to say that I don't own all the music
CDs I bought because it burned the songs onto them.

1. Something that is usually placed on Video Games, Movies, Books, Software, etc. to keep others from stealing their work so that the

shitloads of money.
2. Slang for
cock sucker

To claim as one's own. Big
corporations normally do it so people don't steal their ideas. Then, as soon as somebody does in the slightest way, they
jump on the opportunity and sue their ass for an
unreasonable sum of money.

Just like "employees must watch hands," this is a group of words that nobody reads. It's just a friendly
reminder that the guy who typed what's copywritten will shake his
fist at you if he finds out you
take credit for his work.
Example:
Jim: You can't take that, it's got a copyright!
Doug: Just watch me. (copies and
pastes jim's work!)
Jim: Noooo! *shakes fist at Doug!*
Doug: My name is Doug!
Jim: *
KABOOM*
Doug: that showed him.
