Hi, folks. Does anybody know the current copyright status of the Victory at Sea music? I started listening to it while playing Jutland, and I want to know if I can post a .zip with the files for other people.
I got an A in copyright class but haven't touched it 15 years so I've forgotten a lot. But I remember a rule that still seems to apply. If "Vistory at Sea" was made by the USN (which IIRC it was), then yeah, it's almost certainly been public domain since the day it was created. The usual rule is that anything made by a government entity with tax money is automatically public domain. That would cover the video and the narration for sure.Wikipedia says that the Victory at Sea episodes are public domain, but the music has "other copyright limitations".
