| Abstract: | The article examines how recent developments in EU copyright law affect Slovenian legislation. The Slovenian system of collective management of copyright and related rights is currently under scrutiny by the European Commission, which has initiated infringement proceedings for failure to correctly apply the InfoSoc Directive and the Collective Rights Management Directive. The forthcoming Streamz decision of the Court of Justice of the European Union, initiated by the Belgian Constitutional Court, may further influence Slovenian copyright rules, given that both Slovenia and Belgium have implemented the Digital Single Market Directive by similar means. A pressing issue in Slovenian copyright law—recently addressed by the Higher Court of Ljubljana—concerns the collection, management, and distribution of the private copying levy as a permissible limitation to exclusive authors’ rights under the InfoSoc Directive. A thorough analysis of these issues reveals a complex interplay between EU and national law regarding the collective management of exclusive authors’ rights and various remuneration rights. Adopting a legal-dogmatic approach and applying textual, purposive, systematic and comparative legal methods, the article provides an overview of Slovenia’s copyright protection system, identifies potential incompatibilities with EU law, and proposes legislative solutions. |
