| The US Copyright Law enumerates the exclusive rights of the author in 17 U.S.C. § 106. Any use of the work that is not included in the catalogue of this provision is not within the scope of the copyright of the author, meaning that the work can be used in every other way without any infringement. |
| § 106—Exclusive rights in copyrighted works
Subject to sections 107 through 122, the owner of copyright under this title has the exclusive rights to do and to authorize any of the following:
(1) to reproduce the copyrighted work in copies or phonorecords;
(2) to prepare derivative works based upon the copyrighted work;
(3) to distribute copies or phonorecords of the copyrighted work to the public by sale or other transfer of ownership, or by rental, lease, or lending;
(4) in the case of literary, musical, dramatic, and choreographic works, pantomimes, and motion pictures and other audiovisual works, to perform the copyrighted work publicly;
(5) in the case of literary, musical, dramatic, and choreographic works, pantomimes, and pictorial, graphic, or sculptural works, including the individual images of a motion picture or other audiovisual work, to display the copyrighted work publicly; and
(6) in the case of sound recordings, to perform the copyrighted work publicly by means of a digital audio transmission.

| The number of specific moral copyrights is limited. Solely the right to authorize derivative works (17 U.S.C. § 106 (2)) has a moral right impact but also a strong economic aspect. Only authors of works of visual arts have a more distinct moral position: they have also the rights to be identified as author, to hinder false attributions of works and to protect the integrity of the work (17 U.S.C. § 106A). In all other cases of infringements of the author’s personality or his relation to the work, the author has solely the actions of libel and slander (common law defamation rules). The focus of the exclusive rights of the author is clearly on his economic position. All exclusive rights have a least an economic impact. As the US Copyright Law does not differ between author’s rights and related rights the catalogue of exclusive rights is applicable to all copyrightable works. To all economic rights there are limitations in 17 U.S.C. §§ 107-112 (see later) but some of the economic rights are per se limited in their scope:
taken is "substantial," and therefore not a "fair use" of the copyrighted work; it is the same question as arises in the case of any other copyrighted work. (…)Even so, granting that the plaintiff's play was wholly original, and assuming that novelty is not essential to a copyright, there is no monopoly in such a background. Though the plaintiff discovered the vein, she could not keep it to herself; so defined, the theme was too generalized an abstraction from what she wrote. It was only a part of her "ideas." (Nichols v. Universal Pictures Corporation, 45 F.2d 119 (2d Cir. 1930)) "Copying deleted or so disguised as to be unrecognizable is not copying" (See v. Durang, 711 F.2d 141 (9th Cir. 1983)) “Scénes à faire” are no similar reproduction and therefore no infringement Cain v. Universal Pictures Co. 47 F.Supp. 1013 (United States District Court for the Southern District of California 1942)“ |
