On September 7, 2017 the EU Advocate General filed his conclusions in the dispute between VCAST Limited (UK undertaking) and R.T.I. s.p.a. (Case C-265/16).The question referred to the CJEU upon the stay of the proceedings by the Turin Court is about whether or not online registration services on cloud, of free to-air TV programmes without authorization from the copyright owners Cloud computing has the special feature which, un like convention always of registration and reproduction, the end-user does not purchase or hire the material computing devices but it uses the computing service and infrastructure provided by a third party.Therefore novel problems have arisen as to whether this matter can be considered as an exception for private copies of works protected by copyright and there foreconsidered lawful.The EU Advocate General expressed a negative opinion, underlining that the information storedon cloud contain reproductions of works protected by copyright which, unlike the acts of reproduction done directly by the subject that makes the copy (i.e. a ‘natural person’), it requires the intervention of a service provider.
