There is a lot of precedent in copyright law to examine the amount of
"creativity" that has gone into a work. That's why the phone book white
pages are not copyright, but Blue Book auto pricing is.
It is not the creativity that makes something copyrightable. It is the non-process-related creativity. A patent covers process-related creativity and complexity. Copyrights explicitly exclude this type of creativity and do not cover it. Copyrights do cover the selection and organization of facts, if they are selected and organized by opinion or by creativity instead of by practical constraints.
