Details

The revised Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD) aligns rules for on-demand programmed services (ODPS) with linear television, and introduces rules for video sharing platforms (VSPs) for the first time.

The government commissioned Plum consulting to identify the number of VSPs potentially in the UK’s jurisdiction and aid its assessment of the impact on business of new rules.
