... are kind of scary. Apparently VCRs and DVRs cannot be legally used anymore.

DVRs and VCRs could still be used, but with limitations. Apparently it will be illegal to keep multiple copies of a broadcast, or to store a broadcast for a long period of time. It would therefore seem to be illegal to make a library of your favorite episodes, but not to time-sift a single episode, watch it, then delete it.

Ownership of Copyright in Photographs and Portraits
The Bill brings the ownership of copyright in photographs and portraits in line with other works. Presently, the person who commissions such items is deemed to be the first owner of the copyright. Photographers and artists, therefore, have had to rely on contractual arrangements to obtain rights to reproduce their works. Under the updated Act the photographer or artist will now be the owner of copyright in commissioned photographs and portraits. The person who commissioned the photograph or portrait will have limited rights to use it for personal or non-commercial use without the photographer or artist's permission, subject to any contract that specifies otherwise. |
