No Place Like Home for Making a Copy: Private Copying in European Copyright Law and Consumer LawNatali HelbergerUniversity of Amsterdam - Institute for Information Law (IViR) P. B. HugenholtzUniversity of Amsterdam February 23, 2012 Berkeley Technology Law Journal, Vol. 22, No. 3, 2007 Amsterdam Law School Research Paper No. 2012-35 Institute for Information Law Research Paper No. 2012-29 Abstract: This article examines the intersection between copyright law and consumer law relating to private copying in Europe. In doing so, we will query the effectiveness of copyright law and consumer law as legal instruments to protect consumers in their dealings with information suppliers. Our goal is to demonstrate that while copyright law in Europe does offer a measure of comfort to consumers, the legal instruments of European consumer law are potentially more effective in achieving the freedom to make private copies that European consumers generally expect.
