Correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that copyright transfer is not even legally applicable in many jurisdictions.

- monocasa 8y agoAs far as I understand, not as such, but you can transfer all rights to another. That's how copyright from employee to employer works in Germany AFAIK. So practically it ends up being the same in nearly all cases.
- guitarbill 8y agoPretty much. Pedantically speaking, you can't transfer all rights. Urheberrecht always stays with the author. But Urheberrecht isn't copyright. (Over)simplified, it codifies who owns the copyright of a work initially, and that owner can transfer the copyright.
