Copyrights exist at the moment of creation. Registration is not required. However, you'll be limited to standard state law. For a one-time $35 registration fee with the U.S. Copyright Office, you'll have the benefit of federal law. It works like a time-stamp. Submit a copy to the Copyright Office and get a certificate with a date when received. If an infringer claims your work as their own: (1) prove the two works are the same and (2) that you have the earlier time stamp. However, it is very important to reregister your copyright if any revisions are made. The original time-stamp only protects what was submitted the first time.
