Copyright is territorial, but the same cannot be said of the internet, whose borderless nature has changed the way we consume copyright-protected material. Nevertheless, territorial segmentation of online content remains a reality in the 28 member states of the European Union. Licensing and access practices do not reflect this digital reality, in which end-users demand ubiquitous access to content. For this reason, the territorial nature of copyright and traditional business models based on national exploitation prevent the completion of the Digital Single Market. Sebastian Felix Schwemer provides a unique analysis of the dynamic licensing and access arrangements for audiovisual works and music and shows how they are being addressed by sector regulation and competition law in the Digital Single Market. His analysis, which includes case law of the Court of Justice, the Commission's competition proceedings, and various legislative tools, reveals the overlapping nature of legislative and non-legislative regulatory solutions.
Blockchain and Collective Rights Management of Copyright and Related Rights at the Global Level
Online music streaming has become an important source of revenue within the music industry, but the necessary licensing of musical works and sound recordings can still be quite cumbersome. The thesis discusses what blockchain is, how it could facilitate global licensing, and whether it could replace or improve the current system of collective rights management.
