Summary

The creation of a regulatory framework for the supply of digital content has been a central and ever-growing feature of the EU legislative agenda. The drive towards an EU Digital Market has already resulted in a wealth of legislation harmonising various aspects of the laws of EU Member States. The second edition of EU Digital Law contains an in-depth, article-by-article analysis of core provisions concerning the supply of digital content from the following EU legislation: Consumer Rights Directive Digital Content Directive Digital Markets Act Digital Services Act E-Commerce Directive OIS Regulation Portability Regulation Sale of Goods Directive The contributors are legal experts from across the EU. Their comments give detailed explanations of the background and purpose of the provisions to assist interpretation and indicate potential difficulties and solutions. It is an essential guide for legislators, practitioners, scholars and students.
