This time in Rzeczpospolita, Dr. Michal Markiewicz writes about music, more specifically, song and its special protection. Why is it special? Well, it is an example of an intellectual good that is protected by at least several independent rights that may arise in favor of different entities. Legal exploitation of a song, as a rule, requires obtaining consent against each of the rights that arise (except, of course, for the exceptions provided for in fair use provisions, such as the right of quotation). In addition to pointing out the rights that arise, the text describes, among other things, what mechanisms are in place to facilitate the conclusion of the relevant agreements and how to “circumvent” the protection provided by related rights.
