Intellectual Property in digital media plays quite an important part as this type of media is solely dependent on creative ideas and work of the people who had these type of ideas first. For these talented and creative personality to secure their ideas and feel more confident with less fear of their ideas being stolen or copied. Imagine you made a really funny joke and you told to someone and that someone tells to group of people and they laugh. how'd you feel then ? Well joke apart, for people who actually do breakthrough in their respective field its pretty great thing as competition everywhere is fierce.
IP rights allows Creators to copyright their creation work which can include writing, Music, Art where they have a monopoly of that particular thing where no one is allowed to copy that creation unless the creator himself allows to do so. Ip law does not only provides copyright but trademark also which means it actually gives creator's work or product a symbol to be recognized with, where
trademark owner can be an individual, business, organization, or any legal entity Another thing which IP right provides is patent which generally for the innovative unique idea which can be possible in real life although it is possible that it is something which does not exist yet but the idea for its existence in future.
Digital media's existence is valuable because of this right because digital media will always be dependent on people for their talent, their work, their ideas although if creators work is quiet popular and liked by many then copy of their work or product can be done number of people then there it becomes tough for these rights to have value.
For example Music by popular artist is pirated on internet by many where guilty is the audience and with a huge number of them so it becomes hard to point out each one and file case against them but anyway they are illegal.
