Summary: This comparative study of the private copying of sound and audio-visual recordings, a problem which may fairly be considered the most topical and controversial at present in the field of copyright and related rights, was requested by the Commission of the European Communities. (…) The study will cover the whole problem of domestic uses of works protected by copyright and related rights including the rights of performers. The expression "domestic uses" is understood in the sense of the recording of sounds and images made by private persons without any commercial objective. Firstly, the study will describe the situation on the practical level (the quantitative degree of the uses, and also the loss in earning which results for the authors, the performers and the producers of sound and audio-visual recordings); secondly, it will explain the legal aspects: the gap thus opened in the legal systems of protection of the rights of the authors, the performers and the producers. There should then follow an analytical and comparative description of the laws relating to private use in the Member States of the Community and of the legislation in existence or under preparation in order to compensate the damage suffered by authors, performers and producers. The study will be concluded by a proposal for community legislation. (…) (Font: Prefaci)
