Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A compulsory license is a license granted by the state that allows someone to use a statutory right (such as a copyright) when the owner of that right has failed to work it. This is usually done to promote public access to a particular work or technology. A package license is not a commonly used term in intellectual property law, and exclusive licenses refer to licenses given by a copyright owner to a specific licensee. A statutory copyright license is a type of license granted by law, but it is not the same as a compulsory license.
