- Abstract
- Explores the intellectual property issues that arise in connection with the production and distribution of multimedia products, focusing on recent efforts by a major US art museum to prepare a CD-ROM edition of its collection and catalogue. Issues discussed include: copyright interests and moral rights of artists and others whose works were to be included in the product; respective rights of the museum and the various expert contractors employed in the production process; and the ability of the museum to use copyright, patent and licensing law to protect the finished product against unauthorized exploitation. Concludes that the producer of a multimedia product faces significant legal uncertainty because of the law's limited experience in applying traditional intellectual property doctrines to this novel environment
