What about for books and movies, though, where there's no clear deliniation between the "score" and the "performance"? The equivalent situation is the norm there too.

I'm unsure, but given what I've seen, there's no legal remedy for "plagiarizing" a plot. People can steal plot points, most of the setting, etc. As long as they change character names and write it themselves. But I'd be fine with mandatory licensing for "adaptions," like HP:MoR.
