No publisher is going to publish a book without copyrights in place and nobody is going to make a tv commercial without getting copyrights cleared.
The thought of Apple executives sitting in their office going
Man 1:"Hmmm, we need to put a comic book panel into our ad. We could pay the paltry royalties out of our gigantic financial empire or we could risk a far more damaging lawsuit which will certainly come as tv is not the most discrete of mediums"
Man 2: "The publisher and the author live in the US. If we only show the ad in Britain, nobody will ever know!"
Man 1: "The perfect crime!"
Man 2: "The perfect crime!"
