"The circulation of works of art and artistic creations, and the diffusion of knowledge, arts and culture, in themselves, represent elements boosting human and social development. The online distribution of audiovisual works constitutes a strong expression of cultural dissemination. The circulation of artistic and cultural works clearly benefits society as a whole, and artists, authors and producers are no exception. Cultural policy should not be based on protecting property rights and creating new market segments, thereby sacrificing enjoyment, as advocated in this report; rather, it should be geared towards ever increasing mass access and cultural enjoyment, as well as the creation of culture itself, whilst safeguarding copyright. We would also draw attention to the intentional confusion between sharing – free and without commercial intentions – and piracy. This confusion has paved the way for a sort of hyper-vigilance and punishment, even when these can be shown to be harmful to the free circulation of works, entail high costs, and prove socially ineffective."@en1
