Chusca maniobra de Sony para garantizarse los derechos sobre las primeras grabaciones de Dylan

Resulta que en un par de años se aplicará una nueva normativa de propiedad intelectual en Europa que amplía de 50 a 70 años el plazo para que los productores fonográficos puedan explotar sus grabaciones. Pero en esa misma normativa se contiene una disposición del tipo "o la usas o la pierdes" que no se beneficiarán de esa extensión las grabaciones que no se hayan sacado a la luz en el anterior plazo marcado de 50 años.

Así que Sony, sin ruborizarse, ha sacado una edición de 100 copias (100!) de un box set de cuatro cds con grabaciones de las sesiones del The Freewheelin' y lo ha titulado “The 50th Anniversary Collection. The Copyright Extension Collection, Vol. 1” (ojo que dice volumen 1, así que estos querrán sacar más). Además sólo ha estado a la venta en Alemania, Suecia, Francia y Reino Unido, y con posibilidad de descarga sólo en Alemania y Francia.

Un portavoz de Sony ha afirmado que efectivamente la  razón de sacar este volumen es esa, asegurarse la grabación, porque la ley es diferente en Estados Unidos (donde sí existe el plazo de 70 años).
