Counsel Paolisa Nebbia (Rome/Milan/Brussels-Antitrust) discusses
in The In-House Lawyer how legislative initiative and
enforcement action by the European Commission, aimed to widen
online access to content "anywhere" within the EU, may
only partially level the conditions for consumer access, opening
different opportunities for, or imposing different obligations on,
the market players depending on the technology and the service.
Touching upon the recently adopted Portability Regulation and
current proposal for a Copyright Regulation as well as the pay-TV
case, Paolisa notes the interaction generates great complexity for
licensing parties, which will only ease with the adoption of a
final decision in the case. Licensing practices in the EU are
likely to change dramatically in the next few years.
