Copyrigh new law
The Congreso de los Diputados (The House of Commons), has passed a new copyright law on June 22th of 2006. Its aim is to transpose to the Spanish legislation the content of the European guideline about the Information Society. Finally, and after the controversy gathered round it, the new law includes a tax for each private copy to a digital formats, hard discs, and ADSL lines will be regulated by another rules. The Culture Department, will set, each two years, the list of the digital supports which are subject to tax and the amount of money to pay for each copy. About the right to quote, we have to say that the law recognize the right for the “periodical compilations as reviews or press journals".
