YouTube wins EU court copyright fight

The online video platform YouTube has won a battle over copyright in a top EU court.

The online video platform YouTube has won a battle over copyright in a top EU court. The ruling said online platforms are not liable for users uploading unauthorised works, unless the platforms fail to take quick action to remove or block the content. Nina O'Sullivan is an intellectual property lawyer at Mishcon de Reya, and explains what the ruling actually means for the firm. And we get further reaction from Sam Jones and Max Pardsley, who run the NitPix video channel, which parodies and reviews TV shows and movies. Also in the programme, whilst you might expect that the surge in home deliveries over the past 18 months would be a boost to cardboard firms supplying online retailers, Miles Roberts, chief executive of cardboard firm DS Smith tells us why profits at the business are down. Plus, the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Ed Butler asks whether medicine is about to be transformed by digitisation and artificial intelligence.
