6 Amendments of Bert DOORN related to 2008/0157(COD)

Amendment 6 #
Proposal for a directive – amending act
Recital 5
(5) Performers generally start their careers young and the current term of protection of 50 years with regard to performances fixed in phonograms and for phonograms often does not protect their performances during their entire lifetime. Therefore, performers face an income gap at the end of their lifetimes. They are also often not able to rely on their rights to prevent or restrict objectionable uses of their performances that occur during their lifetimes. Therefore, a regime is herewith provided wherein protection of the work expires either 50 years after fixation or communication to the public, or with the decease of the performing artist, whichever period is the longer.
