The rights of Intellectual Property
http://www.svw.co.za/ blog/ ?p=23
Intellectual Property Rights are legally treated as property. As such they may be disposed of by the owner in any way he or she chooses. They may be sold, licensed out, mortgaged, leased or even just given away. These exclusive rights can generally be divided into two categories, those that prevent people from the copying or reproduction of an article, and those that grant the owner the right to prevent others from doing something. Copyright would prevent someone from copying a book or a speech, whereas a trademark prevents someone from using the same logo or slogan.
