Summary
This publication addresses: the rights a VoD provider needs; contractual standards already in place; the role played by exploitation windows; the rules that determine the relations between different competitors; the useful experiences from the music industry; how VoD customers are protected; and the consequences of the newly created dual role of consumer/producer. The aim of this publication is to examine the main legal issues related to VoD services. Particular attention is paid to questions linked to copyright law, competition law and consumer protection. The study of contractual arrangements chosen by the VoD industry, particularly in France, the United Kingdom and Germany, describes various legal approaches.--Publisher's description.
