Abstract

The Copyright Act has travelled for a long way from the British period to the modern period. The first copyright act was passed, by the Governor General of India, in the year 1847. The origin of copyright law had a nexus with the invention of the printing machine by the Gutenberg in the 15th century. In Europe, the printing was invented and widely established during the period of 15th and 16th century. Because of this invention, there was a glowing and wide spread increase in printing and publication of books, which inter alia, led into the duplication of work done by the other authors without any prior sanction from the concerned authors. This practice caused great hardship to the author/s of the work. In this article, the authors are going to analysis the copyright piracy in case of musical work.
