EU on track for 95-year copyrights.
The music industry is confident that copyright term extension in Europe remains on track, with European Commissioner Charlie McCreevy's draft proposal to change the term of protection directive still likely to be delivered before the end of this month.
The Internal Market commissioner gave the industry a welcome fillip in February when he declared he would propose increasing copyright protection for sound recordings from the current 50 years to 95 years.
He had suggested his proposal should be ready for adoption by the summer break in the EC, which begins in August.
And, according to those with inside knowledge of Brussels, those plans remain on track. However, there are still some hurdles. McCreevy has yet to have a discussion with - let alone persuade - his colleagues who head the other 25 directorates, including Information Society and Media Commissioner Viviane Reding and Consumer Protection Commissioner Meglena Kuneva.
