Okay, maybe this has been covered a lot...but why search for old news?  I understand that copyright is immediately applied and assumed as soon as you write something. And if you declare your copyright, you are even more solidly protected. And the best protection of all is to register your copyright. But for those of us who write a lot, that's mighty expensive. I average about four new songs a month. At $45 a pop, that's $180 per month, or over two grand per year. No way! So, when--if ever--is it necessary to register copyright?
