IPR in multimedia and the multimedia challenge

Article Abstract:

Protection of multimedia technology is complex because the works are easily copied without discernable differences, interactive works change with each user, combined businesses have contradictory practices and information is transmitted globally. Copyright, trademark, patent and confidential information protections under United Arab Emirates' law are all inadequate to protect the new technology. The World Intellectual Property Organization is exploring options including required licensing of copyrighted works or excluding multimedia technology from moral rights protections.
