I guess you meant the "urheberrecht" in
Germany - it is
conceptionally different from the US copyright. The one who
creates a work owns the "urheberrecht" and he or she can grant the
right to make use of the work to somebody else. That's it
roughly.
Yeah. And if a person in Germany creates a work, s/he will own the
urheberrecht and the copyright. Even if s/he seels the copyright, s/he
will still own the urheberrecht. As far as I know, this situation
doesn't exist in the USA, and I think some of the confusion about this
topic is related to that non-universal distinction.
