This article is very confusing.

"Of course, certain types of agreements must be made into a written contract or neither party can be legally held to them. According to attorney Stephan Fishman???s Consultant and Independent Contract Agreements (1998, Nolo Press), the following agreements must always be in writing to be valid:

* Agreements to sell tangible property, such as a computer or car, worth more than $500
* Agreements regarding the sale of real estate
* Agreements that can???t realistically be completed in less than one year, such as a project with three six-month deliverables
* Agreements that someone else will pay you, such as when someone who does not have authority to speak for the company promises that the company will pay you
* Any transfer of copyright ownership"

The last bullet "ANY TRANSFER OF COPYRIGHT OWNERSHIP"

In my understanding of this most examples given in this article and comments deal with some sort of work of art that has a copyright involved. Either the person creating the work of art or the person using it if the copyright symbol can or should be applied.

Am I correct in this understanding?
