That’s where we’re at. No matter how awful the music you make is, you have to document everything because the moment your song or movie makes money people come out of the woods to sue you and get theirs without doing any work.

IP laws are intended to enhance creativity by allowing monetization, but are stifling creativity more and more. We need to find a middle ground here.
Any other SW Engineers feel like Ed S. whenever they write a new algorithm, or design a system?
Almost every possible song has been written before, in POP, Rock,Classic, every possible tone interval has been used, every possible chord cadence has been employed. What makes a song unique is NOT the tune. Its the message it has, its the lyrics, its how the world is being reflected by the song… this is what lawyers ought to think about, before they destroy the creativity of young people. They should not be silenced by threats. Music is here to express oneself, to maintain civilisation and culture, not primarily for the sake of business.
