Abstract:

Urges the European Commission to withdraw the proposal to increase the duration of copyright protection for recorded music to 95 years. Discusses whether a longer term of protection will benefit elderly performers who need the royalties, provide incentives for the re-release of old recordings, affect the price of recorded music or allow the EC music industry to compete more effectively with US rivals.
