Question: What is music licensing?
Answer: Music licensing is the process of licensing, or negotiating permission, to use an existing piece of music. The "license" is a document that is created to document the terms and conditions that are negotiated.
Question: What is the difference between the notations TM or SM and the ®?
Answer:
Any time you claim rights in a mark, you may use the "TM" (trademark) or "SM" (service mark) designation to alert the public to your claim, regardless of whether you have filed an application with the USPTO. You may use the federal registration symbol "®" only after the USPTO actually registers a mark.
Question: Do I have to be a U.S. Citizen to obtain a federal registration?
Answer:
No. However, an applicant's citizenship must be stated in the record. If an applicant is not a citizen of any country, then a statement to that effect is adequate.
