Summary
Broadcasting organisations sit somewhat oddly in the context of intellectual property (IP) law. In terms of the history of legal protection of literary and artistic creativity, broadcasting is relatively new with commercial radio and television services only proliferating in the industrial world in the 1920s and 1930s respectively. At the same time, discussions on traditional radio and television broadcasting rightfully feel very outdated in the twenty-first century, as these services seem increasingly obsolete relative to discussions on copyright in the digital environment.
