Oh, definitely, it's very important. You know, I think it's very important to think about when the musician collaborates with other people, you know, who owns the rights to your work, you know, to the extent possible. That's something that, you know, many young musicians don't do this, but it's very important to think about it and write out some kind of agreement, as to who owns what rights and what percentage of royalties, you know, each person should be entitled to if your work is ever commercial exploited. It's important for musicians to realize that unless you've actually written your work down or recorded it, if you're performing it in a public place and someone hears your song and they like it and they remember it, they can go home and record it themselves and they're not infringing your copyright. So it's important for you to fix your work in, some kind of tangible means of expression, is the term used in copyright act. That could be paper or some kind of sound recording media if you're gonna be making your work available. And, of course, in terms of exploiting your work and licensing it there are lots and lots of complicated issues that are, you know, very important to keep in mind.
