Publisher's Synopsis
The Directive has a major impact upon the way that the film, video, broadcasting and music industries deal with rights and the division of royalties. It is the cornerstone of EC efforts to harmonise the laws of the Member States in the area of copyright and neighbouring rights. This book is an invaluable tool for practitioners and advisers in understanding how the regime created by the Directive works in practice. The authors explain the impact that the Directive has on the existing laws of each EC and EFTA country.
