What is the name of your state? PA
Hypothetical question:
I want to create and market my own directory of US wholesale imoprters. (It will be sold and shipped to consumers both within and outside of my state).
Is it possible to copyright a directory like this? It is simply a list of businesses. It sounds to me as if it would be like trying to copyright a phone book.
What stops another publisher of such a dirtectory from slapping a lawsuit on me because some of my listings happen to be in his directory, as well?
Thanks in advance.
