AMETIC calls for a more efficient model equitable compensation against a new digital canon The employer requests the Government to an effort of analysis and collaboration is made to adopt the model more efficient fair compensation to ensure the protection of intellectual property. Given the hypothetical return to so-called digital canon, AMETIC reiterates that the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) supports the system of compensation for private copying can be charged to the State Budget. In June 2016, the ECJ gave judgment in relation to the questions referred by the Spanish Supreme Court on fair compensation system in force in Spain since 2012.
A finales de 2011, las sentencias del TJUE y de la Audiencia Nacional de Barcelona, se alaban que el sistema de compensaci n equitativa aplicado a ciertos soportes y aparatos de grabaci n adquiridos por los consumidores no manten a un justo equilibrio al no tener en cuenta el perjuicio efectivamente causado por la copia privada. Por estas razones, el Gobierno espa ol decidi sustituir el modelo de pago por un nuevo modelo de financiaci n consistente en compensar a los titulares de derechos de propiedad intelectual beneficiarios de dicha compensaci n, con cargo a los Presupuestos Generales del Estado por las copias leg timas hechas por los consumidores. Para el c lculo de la compensaci n, la norma en vigor marca que ha de tenerse en cuenta el perjuicio efectivamente causado.
In its decision, the ECJ pointed out that although the system of financing the most commonly chosen fair compensation is the payment by recording devices and copying, the Directive does not preclude Member States have decided to introduce the exception of private copying opt for finance from its general budget (a solution has also been adopted in Estonia, Finland and Norway, besides in Spain), provided that the system guarantees the payment of fair compensation for the holders of the rights which guarantee their perception modalities and legal persons are not effective liable to pay the corresponding tax, but this only be paid by users of private copies.
Since the ECJ rulings are binding on the national legal body which raised the questions, the Supreme Court has taken into account in its decision the response received.
Next steps
AMETIC counts among its partners with leading companies in the information technology, telecommunications and digital content. This sector comprises many national and international companies that generate and make available to users of the good creative content, technologies and services that make up the digital era.
Como representante de la industria, AMETIC asegura estar profundamente comprometida con la propiedad intelectual y con el impulso de modelos sostenibles y defensa leg tima de los titulares de derechos. Es importante dotar al sistema de unas reglas que faciliten el desarrollo de nuevos modelos de negocio surgidos en la econom a digital, teniendo en cuenta la justa retribuci n y protecci n a los autores de contenidos creativos y culturales.
La reciente sentencia del Tribunal Supremo que, aplicando la sentencia del TJUE anula el RD que regula el procedimiento de pago de la compensaci n equitativa con cargo a los PGE, implica que debe realizarse un proceso de adaptaci n del sistema para su adecuaci n a la normativa europea y no necesariamente anularlo y sustituirlo por otro, como exigen las entidades de gesti n. El TJUE indic que el anterior sistema de compensaci n equitativa mediante un canon digital no ten a como base el prejuicio efectivamente causado.
According to AMETIC during this process should make an effort of analysis and collaboration to adopt the most efficient model to ensure the protection of intellectual property, while promoting the rapid diffusion of new and legitimate business models.
En este sentido, el director general de AMETIC se ala que en cualquier caso, el sistema de compensaci n debe tener en cuenta los criterios establecidos en la Directiva 2001/29/EC, esto es, que la compensaci n sea equitativa, si el perjuicio causado es m nimo, ste no puede dar lugar a una obligaci n de pago y se deben tener en cuenta las medidas tecnol gicas. En definitiva, se debe calcular el perjuicio efectivamente causado .
AMETIC considers in defitiva that a system to ensure that fair compensation corresponding to the authors shall be borne by individuals and not legal entities, such as by modifying the tax systems of VAT or income tax, can be an effective tool no market distortions and allow at the same time, the actual receipt of fair compensation for private copying of holders of intellectual property rights.
