Táto štúdia skúma, či je z politického a hospodárskeho hľadiska možné zaviesť paušálne sadzby za obsah pre držiteľov práv, čo spotrebiteľom umožní zákonnú vzájomnú výmenu medzi jednotlivými používateľmi (tzv. peer-to-peer).

Predstavuje hlavné ciele systému paušálnych poplatkov za obsah, ako aj paušálne ...

This study investigates how EU policy on music rights licensing, particularly for online services, is affecting cultural diversity. For that purpose, it analyses information on the popularity of different repertoires (Anglo-American, EU and domestic) in recent years in a sample of EU Member States. It finds that current policies are likely to weaken the position of authors and composers, therefore posing a challenge for cultural diversity.
