Benefits of Registration of Copyright -Amitha Somaweera

Copyright registration provides significant advantages that can significantly benefit creators. Most importantly, it can substantially reduce transaction costs. By registering their work, copyright owners can monetize their creations through sales or licensing agreements. For these transactions to succeed, potential buyers or licensees must easily access the identity and contact information of the copyright owner. When obtaining this information is cumbersome or costly, it discourages transactions. Thus, registration protects creators and facilitates smoother and more profitable exchanges in the marketplace.
