Copyright law in a new guise

Directive 2014/26/EU, known as Directive Barnier, by the name of the speaker, is the need to bring order in the management of copyright, the system characterized by considerable differences from country to country. The aim of the new regulation is therefore to harmonize the field, introducing even greater liberalization.
The lines of action of the Directive are three. The collective management of copyright, or the compensation that each  artist mature for reproduction of their works. The most significant case and economically most remarkable is that of music: each step of a song on the radio or other means of communication, triggers the copyright, which in Italian is "recognized" by the SIAE in a monopoly . The second sector of the Directive is the management of rights related to copyright is the case, for example, a theater actor who plays a text of another or a musician who plays the song of another. Final area of reform is the granting of multi-territorial licenses for online rights in musical works reproduced: for example, on youtube.
The Government would have to transpose the new EU rules by 10 April 2016, but it did not succeed, incurring in an infringement procedure.
To date, unfortunately, things still remain essentially unchanged, at least as regards the liberalization: SIAE remains the monopoly of the management of nationally copyright and remains still possible for the artist to apply, when the works are performed or reproduced abroad, to another intermediary.
