Public and commercial models of access in the digital era

This study provides an overview of the status and evolution of the way in which cultural and creative, both commercial and public, content is delivered to and accessed by the wider public in Europe. Trends, obstacles and drivers in the transition to a digital era are identified and provide a basis for a set of recommendations.

The analysis covers the whole EU, supported by more in-depth analyses of seven Member States: Estonia, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom.
