What is that gaggle? "Bwahahaha"? Sounds like the sheep bleating I heard from the farm next door where I grew up. Do sheep get copyrights?
And as to music, did Bach, Mozart, Ludwig von Beethoven, and Brahms? Did they get copyrights?
Copyright law is a fairly recent development. It was not codified in Mozart's time, but you also didn't have millions of teenagers downloading from the internet either. You also had a society that took pride in patronizing the arts. We live in a different world today.
