論《著作權法》對“網播”的規制

On the Regulation of the“Webcasting”in Copyright Law

“網播”不是“網絡傳播”的縮略語，也不包括“網絡轉播”，而是指通過網絡實施的初始非交互式傳播。修改前的《著作權法》對廣播權的定義移植自《伯爾尼公約》的規定，不能規制“網播”，當時只能對“網播”適用“兜底權利”。《著作權法》修改後，廣播權被改造為涵蓋以任何技術手段進行非交互式傳播的專有權利，可以規制“網播”。其規制範圍不限于傳播作品創作完成時的原始形態，還包括傳播作品的表演和表演的錄製品。

Webcast' is not the abbreviation of 'network communication', nor does it include 'real -time re-transmission by network', but refers to the initial non-interactive communication implemented through the network. The definition of broadcasting right in Copyright Law before the third amendment basically transplanted the provisions of the Berne Convention and could not regulate 'webcasting'. At that time, it could only apply 'catch-all right' to 'webcasting'. After the amendment of Copyright Law, the broadcasting right has been transformed to cover non- interactive communication by any technical means, including the 'webcasting' . The scope of its regulation is not limited to the communication of the original form of a work when it is created, but also includes the communication of the performance of the works and of the recording of the performance.
