Bruno Mars sings a song composed by Paul McCartney at a family holiday party at Mr. Mars's home. Later that week, Bruno Mars sings the song at a large concert. No permission from Mr. McCartney was received. Discuss whether Mr. McCartney's copyright rights have been violated by either performance.?
What will be an ideal response?
The performance at the concert violates Paul McCartney's rights because it is a public performance. The performance at Bruno Mars's family party is permissible as a private performance if it was in a social setting or family event (as it appears to be). A copyright owner's rights of performance is limited to public performances.?
