In Favor of Collectively Managed Online Rights
Compensation Decentral Session:
Commons aspects are an inherent part of copyright. Where property control over the use of works proved infeasible or undesirable, Continental European lawmakers granted statutory permission to these uses and put a levy on devices and services as compensation to the authors. This system that worked well for forty years holds the solution for the digital online realm as well. What can not be controlled by means of technology and law enforcement must be permitted by law. A new levy on Internet access collectively managed by a new online collecting society provides compensation to authors. The result: works can freely circulate online, and the creatives receive a fair remuneration
