[JEDRO]

V razmerju do avtorjev so naloge kolektivne organizacije ekskluzivne, kar pomeni, da mora slednja v sistemu kolektivnega upravljanja male avtorske pravice upravljati na podlagi samega zakona, pa če avtor in/ali uporabnik to želita ali ne. Avtor v takem primeru ne more določenemu uporabniku prepovedati uporabe svojega dela, prav tako pa mu ne more dovoliti brezplačne uporabe svojega dela.
