Do I need to register a copyright on my iBook before I submit it to Apple?
I am in the final stages of preparing my iBook textbook for Apple.
My big concern is whether I need to or should register a governmental copyright on the iBook's content.
I know recently that Apple changes the terms of its EULA so that the authors retain the rights to their work, but does this presuppose that the authors have already registered a copyright? Or does this mean that an iBook's copyright is created when it is posted to the iTunes store?
It concerns me that I might have to wait for 3 months while the copyright is established only to wait for another long period while Apple reviews the iBook
