music and copy rights

1.once you make sure your lyrics or notes don't mimic those of another artist unless you have the artist's permission. "wikipedia"
2.As a general rule, for works created after January 1, 1978, copyright protection lasts for the life of the author plus an additional 70 years. For an anonymous work, a pseudonymous work, or a work made for hire, the copyright endures for a term of 95 years from the year of its first publication or a term of 120 years from the year of its creation, whichever expires first.

5.There are two main types of sheet music available these days: public domain or free sheet music and copyrighted sheet music. While both might look identical on the page, there are some key differences in how these two types of sheet music can be used. Some sheet music will be clearly marked as either copyrighted or in the public domain, however, not all sheet music is this obvious. If it is not marked either way, assume that it is copyrighted until you have proof otherwise.

Public Domain Sheet Music Usage:
If you find a piece of public domain sheet music, you have the ability to use it as you wish. This can include making recordings of it, copying it and distributing it, or using it as a starting point for an original work. Public domain sheet music is just that – public. Nobody owns the rights to it, so all may use it, but no one can claim it as solely their own (not even the original creator). Once a piece of music is in the public domain, it cannot be copyrighted afterwards.

Copyrighted Sheet Music Usage:
If a piece of music is copyrighted, then there are restrictions on how and when it can be used. These often include restrictions on who can perform the piece in public, who can copy or distribute the sheet music, and who can use the music in other ways as well. In most cases, if you want to use a piece of copyrighted sheet music, you will need to get permission from the publisher or original creator and will often need to pay a royalty fee as well.

A podcast (or non-streamed webcast) is a series of digital media files (either audio or video) that are released episodically and often downloaded through web syndication. The word replaced webcast in common use with the success of the iPod and its role in the rising popularity and innovation of web feeds.
The mode of delivery differentiates podcasting from other means of accessing media files over the Internet, such as direct download, or streamed webcasting. A list of all the audio or video files currently associated with a given series is maintained centrally on the distributor's server as a web feed, and the listener or viewer employs special client application software known as a podcatcher that can access this web feed, check it for updates, and download any new files in the series. This process can be automated so that new files are downloaded automatically. Files are stored locally on the user's computer or other device ready for offline use, giving simple and convenient access to episodic content. Commonly used audio file formats are Ogg Vorbis and MP3. In many respects, this is closer to traditional publishing models associated with books and magazines (as opposed to radio, which uses a live stream).
Academics at the Community, Journalism & Communication Research group at the University of Texas at Austin in the USA are proposing a four-part definition of a podcast: A podcast is a digital audio or video file that is episodic; downloadable; program-driven, mainly with a host and/or theme; and convenient, usually via an automated feed with computer software.
