Introduction

Copyright is an important concept that protects people's creative works. In the modern world where so much can be found so easily accessible online and with so little preventing it from being obtained and used, the law must come forward to protect people and their unique creative works from misuse.

The EU regulations on copyright have been evolving through the years, and the introduction of the current law occurred in 1993. With the changes that have taken place since that time along with all the lessons learned by the authority, new legislation was inevitable.

The new law has received significant thought and discussion over the last few years, and this is all coming to a head after recent negotiations and talks that have occurred. With these discussions coming along, it will only be a matter of time before we see the full extent of the changes.
