The paper presents the results of the analysis of issues concerning the distribution in Poland. Distribution, in the context of the copyright law, is the compensation for the reproduction of works used with permit by private individuals for the personal purpose. Depending on the form of the exploitation of work or the subject of right (authors, performers, publishers or producers of phonograms and video recording), the fee should be paid. Fees for the use of protected works are collected from users based on the license agreements. Collective societies involved in the collect and division of the fees for the use of works within the permitted personal use. Article 23 of copyright law established the principle for unpaid permitted private use. There is no claim for payment of remuneration to the collective society or to users, if the works are copied within its own personal use. Exploitation of the works on the statutory license for private use is permitted, therefore, in connection with eg. common interests. Moreover, the relationships established through the internet are not excluded. Specificity is the fact that nowadays the reprographic fee of media is borne by entities that are themselves do not use of the works and do not encroach on the symptoms of copyright as an exclusive right. Holders of reprographic equipment, who are already established in the field of reproduction of works for personal use by third parties are obliged to pay, through the organization of collective management of copyright and related rights, duties amounting to 3% of the proceeds of this account on behalf of authors and publishers, unless the reproduction is carried out under an agreement with an eligible (eg. the author or publisher). Reprographic fees, so-called copyright levies or fees, which are counted towards to the blank media and copying machines are paid by all customers. Fees are paid by producers and importers of copying devices and blank media. In the field of reprographic fees, copyright is obsolete and should be complemented with modern audiovisual equipment, including tablets, smartphones etc.

The paper deals with copyright levies in copyright law. Copyright levies are intended to compensate subjects entitled to works protected under copyright law for any loss arising from reproduction of such works for private use. It is claimed that the assumptions that underlined the imposition of copyright levies in Germany in the sixties of the last century are now largely outdated, while the very model of copyright levies contains many faults which cannot be repaired within the existing system. Judgments delivered by the CJEU with regards to the provisions of Directive 2001/29/EC on compensating losses caused by reproduction of work protected under copyright law for private use have been analysed to establish the requirements specified in EU law regarding compensation for losses arising from private use (of reproduced protected works), including models alternative to those currently binding in the EU. Concluding, the author postulates replacement of copyright levies with a common fee.

Autor zajmuje się problematyką opłat od urządzeń kopiujących i czystych nośników w prawie autorskim. Mają one na celu zrekompensowanie uprawnionym do dóbr chronionych w prawie autorskim strat wynikających z zwielokrotniania tych dóbr w ramach użytku prywatnego. W tekście wskazano, że założenia przyjęte przy wprowadzaniu opłat w latach sześćdziesiątych XX w. w Niemczech, są w dużej mierze obecnie nieaktualne, a model opłat ma wiele wad, których w ramach tego systemu nie da się usunąć. Autor analizuje również orzecznictwo Trybunału Sprawiedliwości Unii Europejskiej odnoszące się do postanowień dyrektywy 29/2001, dotyczących rekompensowania uprawnionym strat wynikających ze zwielokrotniania dóbr chronionych w prawie autorskim w ramach użytku prywatnego. Analiza ta ma na celu ustalenie wymogów wynikających z prawa unijnego dla modeli rekompensowania strat związanych z użytkiem prywatnym, w tym modeli alternatywnych wobec modelu obecnie dominującego w Unii Europejskiej. W ostatniej części autor proponuje odejście od opłat pobieranych od urządzeń oraz czystych nośników i zastąpienie ich opłatą powszechną.
