Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 25
Paragraph 25
25. Takes the view that private copies of protected works made by natural persons using cloud computing technology may have the same purpose as those made using traditional and/or digital recording media and materials as far as these copies fulfil the conditions of Article 5(2)(b) and article 5(5) of Directive 2001/29/EC; considers that these copies should be taken into account by the private copying compensation mechanisms; Stresses however that cloud computing services that are directly or indirectly part of a commercial activity cannot be covered by the private copy exception; Therefore calls on the Commission to assess the legitimacy of music or audiovisual services which claim to be based on the private copying exception, in particular their impact on the development of legal offers;
