ARMENIAN DISC PRODUCERS ALLOWED TO SELL PILED DISCS WITHOUT HOLOGRAMS
YEREVAN, April 25. / ARKA /. The Armenian government on Thursday
amended its earlier decision, which now allows local manufacturers
of CDs, DVDs and other electric carriers to sell the piled up discs
without holograms. The previous government decision prohibited sale
of CDs, DVDs and electronic carriers without the hologram starting
from April 18.
The first decision made producers of discs to protest in front of
the government building for two weeks.
They were angered by the decision that obliged them to submit to the
Intellectual Property Agency of Armenia the permission of foreign
producer groups allowing them to reproduce their products in Armenia.
Local disc producers said obtaining the permission is too costly
suggesting that the decision extends only to local producer companies.
Prime minister Tigran Sargsyan instructed the ministry of economy to
supervise the enforcement of the decision. -0-
