Copyright does not protect facts, ideas, systems, or methods of operation, although it may protect the way these things are expressed. What is copyright registration?
In general, copyright registration is a legal formality intended to make a public record of the basic facts of a particular copyright. However, registration is not a condition of copyright protection. Even though registration is not a requirement for protection, the copyright law provides several inducements or advantages to encourage copyright owners to make registration.
