The paper describes and critically evaluates the Cross-Border Portability Regulation (2017/1128) with reference to its scope and intended purpose. The paper shows that although the Regulation can be regarded as a first of its kind consumer copyright law-type of instrument taking as its point of departure difficulties with accessing legal content, the Regulation, having been hastily adopted in the shadow of negotiations preceding the adoption of the DSM Directive, leaves a number of crucial issues unanswered, such as whether it in fact applies to other types of access to digital content than subscription-based access such as streaming services. The paper is a contribution to EU Copyright Law: Subsistence, Exploitation and Protection of Rights (Kluwer Law International, 2019) intended to be accessible to a wider audience and is based on the author's ongoing research.
