中文摘要：
《世界知识产权组织版权条约》（WCT）规定的向公众传播权和向公众提供权是信息网络传播权的国际法渊源，在立法目的指引下对其进行文本解读有助于界定信息网络传播权的范畴并厘清其与广播权的界限。WCT和著作权法规定的向公众提供作品使公众成员可在其个人选定的时间和地点获得作品，应依据法律本文进行解释，不宜附加额外要求。信息网络传播权和广播权属基本平行的两种传播权，其界定应以承载作品的信号在传播介质中保留的时间长短为依据。网络实时直播或转播属广播权范畴，而把作品提供于互联网空间使公众可在个人选定的时间和地点获得之行为，包括网络定时循环播放影视作品，属信息网络传播权范畴。著作权法第三次修订宜扩展广播权，使之包括有线广播及对有线广播的有线转播等传播方式，藉以弥补我国著作权法下广播权的缺陷。
英文摘要：
The right of communication to the public and the right of making available to the public prescribed by the WIPO Copyright Treaty (WCT) are international legal sources of the right of communication over information networks in the Chinese Copyright Law. Textual interpretation guided by legislative purpose is conducive to determining the scope of the right of communication over information networks and its boundary with broadcasting right. The condition of "making available to the public of works in such a way that members of the public may access them from a place and at a time individually chosen by them" in the WCT and in the Chinese Copyright Law should be interpreted according to the texts of the treaty and the law, not according to any additional element. The right of communication over information networks and broadcasting right are basically parallel and their boundary should be determined according to the length of the time in which the signals carrying the works are made available in the media. While real-time webcasting and rebroadcasting on the Internet is covered by broadcasting right, the act of making available of the works over information networks and making them accessible by the public at a time and from a place individually chosen by them, including repeated online displaying of audiovisual works, falls within the scope of the right of communication over information networks. The Third Amendment to the Chinese Copyright Law should expand the broadcasting right to cover cable-casting and cable rebroadcasting, so that the deficiencies of the right of communication to the public may hopefully be remedied.
