知识付费平台的著作权纠纷及其解决

Copyright Disputes and Solutions of Knowledge Payment Platforms

知识付费平台与著作权人之间的纠纷已成为知识付费产业发展的桎梏,用户未经授权使用作品是纠纷产生的主要原因。现行著作权法以"规模小且相对集中的商业使用者"为规制对象的作品授权机制与"大众用户创作模式"脱节,且平台多采取"形式性审查"规避风险,并未采取有效措施抑制用户侵权的动力。从知识付费产业看,平台及其用户与著作权人分别处于产业不同环节,三者合作可实现各自利益最大化。在侵权作品过滤、权利限制和作品授权许可三种机制中,可选择退出的默示许可机制能较好促成各主体合作,化解其利益冲突。可从保障著作权人报酬获取权和退出权行使的角度入手,借助著作权集体管理制度,打造选择退出默示许可制度的运行框架。

The dispute between the knowledge e-commerce platform and the copyright owner has become a shackle for developing the knowledge payment industry.The unauthorized use of the copyrighted works by users is the main reason.The authorization mechanism under the current copyright law is to regulate the"small and relatively concentrated business"and it’s therefore out of line with the"UGC model";At the same time the platform has not taken effective measures to control user’s infringement.From the perspective of the knowledge-paying industry,the platform and its users and copyright owners are in different places of the industry,but they can coordinate to maximize their respective interests.Among these three solutions,that is,fi lteringinfringing works,limitations to copyright and licensing,the implied licensing system of opt-out can promote the cooperation and better resolve the interests confl icts among three parties.We can create an operating framework for the implied licensesystem of opt-out from the perspective of protecting remuneration right and withdrawal right of the copyright owner,and with the help of the collective management system.
