Abstract
The article reacts to the judgment of Court of Justice of EU in case C-265/19. It provides an overview of the court´s decision and explains the principles of national treatment and material reciprocity in the context of international and European copyright law, in particular with regard to the relevant provisions of WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty and EU Rental and Lending Directive, which were subject to the judgement too. At the same time, the article describes possible consequences the judgment could have for the EU Member States and for the EU and its acquis as such. The topic mostly focuses on payment of single equitable remuneration to third countries from the EU for the use of performances and phonograms of third countries nationals (performers and phonogram producers) on the territory of EU. Finally, few comments are made about the Slovak Copyright law and further steps are also briefly analysed.
