The information society poses new problems for copyright law. The fair use clause takes on a new importance. The exclusive rights of reproduction, distribution and communication to the public of protected works takes on new and problematic aspects. The emergence of so many new services and new operating models in the Internet demonstrates both the efforts made by right holders and digital services and the resilience of the international copyright system. The Digital Rights Management constitutes an extension of the copyright. The upload and the download of protected works is sometimes permitted and others prohibited. The hyperlinks cause a different type of problems and also the exhaustion of the distribution right. In Portugal and in the other European Union countries as streaming services (and websites) become an increasingly important sales channel for music and films legislators and courts need to start taking heed of the Directive 2001/29/EC. The Court of Justice of the European Union has made a decisive contribution to solving some of these problems.
