I have a Thin Lizzy songbook that I bought in London about 15 years ago that says the compilation is copyrighted.
Are the individual songs in the public domain? Is it the layout/editing that has been copyrighted or the table of contents? Copyright law is a very tricky subject. You can't just look at a copyright in a book and deduce which aspects of the work are copyrighted. You can't even assume the copyright will stand up in court (in your example you said Prentice Hall had a banner that forbad the copying of "the software" which they were clearly not entitled to do, since "the software" was under the GPL) //Anders
