摘要:

网络环境下的著作权保护问题受到人们的持续关注。2015年耀宇公司起诉斗鱼公司侵犯著作权及不正当竞争的案件成为热门
案件,引发了人们对网络游戏比赛画面的法律性质问题的探讨。法院经过审理认定了斗鱼公司的不正当竞争行为,但并未认可网络
游戏比赛画面的作品属性。然而,法院的理由不足以令人信服。剖析作品的本质并与网络游戏比赛画面进行对比后,发现虽较之于
传统比赛画面,网络游戏比赛画面存在诸多特殊性,但这并无碍网络游戏比赛画面的作品属性,而网络游戏版权方是权利人,直播
方可以通过与版权方签订协议获得传播网络游戏比赛画面的权利,而比赛中的玩家虽然使用了网络游戏中的素材,但并不是权利人
。在网络游戏比赛画面传播的保护上,确实存在法律空白,应予以重视。

Abstract:

In recent years, how to protect copyright on network environment causes people’s attention. In 2015,
the case that Yaoyu sued Douyu on copyright infringement and unfair competition has aroused people to investigate
the legal nature of online game screen. The court finally affirmed Douyu’s acts of unfair competition, but did
not admit the online game screen as works. However, the court’s reason was not convincing. After exploring the
nature of works, and comparing it with online game screen, it is found that dispute the particularity of online
game screen, it still meets the requirements of the works. By further analyzing the factors of online game screen,
it is concluded that the online game screen belongs to copyright owners of the network games rather than the live
party or any game player. At the same time, law deficiency in protecting online game screen should be paid much
attention in academic circle.

Key words: online game, game screen, works, intellectual property
