Neighbouring Rights are Obsolete external link

IIC - International Review of Intellectual Property and Competition Law, 2019

Abstract

Neighbouring rights based on technological investment that do not provide for a threshold test and corresponding rule of scope, such as the phonographic right, the broadcaster’s right and Europe’s film producer’s right, are outdated and inherently unbalanced. The new press publisher’s right introduced by the EU DSM Directive is similarly unbalanced.
