盗版和非法下载版权材料,如:音乐、电影、电子游戏…自从数字时代开始,互联网就变得越来越受欢迎。另一方面,这种做法受到了一些消费能力低的人所青睐–不是谁都能购买昂贵的材料–来访问更广泛的在线资源,并将其用于教育或娱乐目的。另一方面,它挑战了法律机构和创意产业在平衡著作权人的合法利益和公共利益。非法下载来自互联网本质上就是错误的,不应该鼓励、因此建议法律和法律补救措施应该不断进行适当设计和修改,使盗版无法继续。然而,在英国现行法律框架下它一直被批评不能满足这些要求,在打击在线侵犯版权方面仍然是一个很弱的环节。
Piracy and illegal file downloading of copyright materials such as: music, film, video games... over theinternet have become increasingly popular since the digital age began. On the one hand, this practicesupports less fortunate consumers – who cannot be able to purchase expensive materials – to accessa wider range of online resources and use them for educational or entertainment purposes. On theother hand, it challenges the relentless effort of the legal bodies and the creative industries inbalancing the legitimate benefits of copyright owners and the public interest. As illegal downloadsfrom the internet are intrinsically wrong and should not be encouraged, it’s suggested that the lawand legal remedies should be designed appropriately and amended constantly to keep up with thetechnological advances that enable piracy to continue.However, it has been criticized that thecurrent legal frameworks in the UK could not satisfy those requirements and still play a very weakrole in tackling online copyright infringement.

本文旨在探讨一种想法声称对非法下载的法律限制在实践中是有效的–无论任何尝试-因为网络盗版是如此广泛。虽然这一说法似乎在目前的情况下是正确的,但评估问题的不同方面,特别是法律机构和政策的作用,对于提供更客观和综合的观点至关重要。因此,本文将分为两部分。第一个评估英国在线版权侵权的程度。第二个重点是政府和相关利益攸关方处理网络盗版问题的工作。This paper aims to discuss an idea which claim that legal restrictions on illegal downloads are noteffective in practice – regardless any attempts - because online piracy is so extensive. While thisstatement seems to be true under the current context, evaluating different aspects of the issue,especially the role of legal bodies and policies, are crucial to provide a more objective andcomprehensive perspective. Hence, this paper will be divided into two sections. The first oneevaluates the extent of online copyright infringement in the UK. The second one focuses on theefforts of both the government and related stakeholders in dealing with online piracy issue.

To begin with, it’s reported that online piracy has made huge losses in revenue for the creativeindustries. According to an analysis prepared by LEK for the Motion Picture Association in 2005, theworldwide motion picture industry, including foreign and domestic producers, distributors, theaters,video stores and pay-per-view operators, lost $18.2 billion in 2005 as a result of piracy (MPA, 2006,p.4). In the UK, the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) indicated that online copyright infringementcosted the music industry over £200 million in lost revenue in 2009, and the cumulative total lossesbetween 2001 and 2012 were estimated to be £1.2 billion (Mene, 2010). In addition, a recentresearch of Kantar Media into the extent of online copyright infringement in the UK has revealedmany useful information. It’s estimated that amongst those internet users who consumed contentonline over the three-month period (March – May 2015), 31% consumed at least one item illegally....................

In conclusion, illegal downloads of copyright materials from the internet have created significantchallenges for both the creative industries and the government in maximizing the benefits of digitalassets and imposing effective legal restrictions. Therefore, along with actively seeking commonconsents among all relevant parties, it’s suggested that the creative industries should constantlystrive to devise new business models to adapt and gradually diminish harmful consequences of onlinecopyright infringement. Last but not least, given the inefficiencies of current legal frameworks, thegovernment and legislators need to looking for more supports and advices beyond the parliament toaddress the issue more appropriately.
