While scholars acknowledge that this requirement exists, its teleological significance is not appreciated. This article argues that the need for record is a fundamental requirement in conceptualising copyright as a property right, which gives the content of copyright subject matter a form, demarcating its boundaries and triggering property protection. It analyses the rules governing form, which are sometimes expressly and sometimes impliedly stated in the statute, but not necessarily understood independently from other requirements of copyright subsistence. It goes on to explain why the need for form exists at all and why it exists as a precondition to copyright subsistence, unlike authors’ rights regimes, going on to argue that the need for form is compatible with EU law. 000042061 525__ $$aPublished in : Journal of the Copyright Society of the USA 000042061 650_0 $$aCopyright 000042061 650_0 $$aProperty right 000042061 650_0 $$aCDPA 000042061 85641 $$uhttps://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3602776$$yView this resource 000042061 904__ $$aJournal article 000042061 980__ $$aBIB
