      Hence me asking for the EU to analyse and fully implement Portugal’s right of private copy.

      Boiled down, this just states anyone can have a copy, for their own private use, of any media they own and paid for.

      This means I pay an added fee on any support I buy where I can write any media but I can legally keep it for myself.

      The regulation is obviously polemic for all parts involved but it is a good start, even more when media platforms are removing access to products paid for.
