Copyright material is the term given to any existing material that belongs to somebody else, such as the following:
Music
Images
Literature

You cannot copy, manipulate, reuse, or distribute a copyrighted work without permission from the copyright holder, who might (should) charge a fee.

There are a few loopholes but we regress on Fair Use law, and other topics.
