CHRIS NOTES

  • the licensor obligations section is particularly difficult to understand from a substantive standpoint
  • clickwrap: "While many legal systems have not fully addressed the effect of these types of licenses, courts in some countries have ruled that a valid consent, giving rise to a binding contracts, can be formed in these fashions.

[edit]" and others have not, correct?

  • need cite for "Articles 11bis(2) and Article 13(1) of the Berne Convention"
  • "Even where exclusive rights are involved, other non-voluntary forms of collective management may be permissible under the Berne Convention. For example, extended collective management allows a collective society to license the works of all copyright holders for a certain creative class once they represent a large number of that class. This generally includes foreign and non-member copyright owners."
    • probably should give an example here - perhaps a brief explanation of GBS?
