Once again the European Union showing itself in favor of the unification of markets in the Old Continent and giving a lesson on how things should be done. As you well know, many streaming services such as Netflix, have "geoblocking" systems that will prevent you from consuming Netflix United States content from Spain. However, as happened with roaming, the next to fall is going to be this geoblocking, and that is the high bodies of the European Union are getting to work to regulate the matter and prevent this type of practice from some of the most powerful companies in the software content market.
The main focus is video and audio streaming services. And the fact is that the European Union, as it does with the currency, intends that the entire community territory maintain the same content, so at least the "geoblocking" between member countries will be prevented, which means that from Netflix Spain we will have absolute access to all the content of Netflix Germany, to give a simple example.
It is not very well known how this new regulation will affect the content of services on demand for audiovisual content in the United Kingdom, a country involved in a disconnection with the European Union.
This agreement will have benefits for two Europeans. People who have a subscription to their favorite series, music and sports, will be able to enjoy them both at home and abroad while traveling in Europe. It is an important step to break down barriers and establish a "Digital Single Market".
The European Union continues in the interests of removing borders to trade in Europe, and this has been explained by Andrus Ansip. As they did with roaming, it is a benefit that will affect practically all of us and that no one will reject.
