Yes I know, hence the question/speculation I made with the D50 example:Roland however is not an American Company and the D50 was first released in Japan not the United States.
Or that this doesn't apply because the product wasn't made in America, only sold/distributed in America?
Thanks, yes, certainly my implicit understanding of copyright law my entire life is as it is understood widely now - it's always been that way in the UK at least (in my adultish lifetime at least), it just seems the US was somewhat late to the party. Thanks for the clarifications...The entire purpose of the Berne Convention Implementation Act of 1988, was to bring US Copyright law into agreement with those of other countries.
