Copyright Issues

The debate about intellectual property rights, and ensure their payment has been considerably expanded in recent years because of globalization and the growing "consumption" of copyright works.  Furthermore, the Internet and digital technology enables fast and easy reproduction and distribution of works of all kinds. Copying and pasting text, sharing photos, music and video sharing computer programs are just a few examples where the violation of intellectual property rights can easily be done.Municipalities that decide to create their own Municipal Web TV or radio station should take into account the legislation and the costs for placing audio and video files. Thereby ensuring that it infringes the rights of authors, avoiding severe penalties that the Greek and international law provide, and preserve their own and rights of creations that "raise".
