However some major cases in the Court of Justice of the European Union, one involving Phil Collins, led to Directive 93/98. The amendment stated that the copyright life was extended to the authorÂs life plus 70 years for literary, dramatic, musical and artistic works. The directive also changed the position in regards to films, which has now extended copyright to 70 years after the death of the owner.
