Thank you EU

What exactly does that mean?

So like Netflix in the UK by law would have to have 30% of their catalogue be shitty UK terrestrial shows?

And what happens when Netflix says "Fuck off"?

To be fair some of the local content in France and Germany is quite good, problem is people don't watch it because it's buried under FRIENDS, an Adam Sandler flick and Stranger Things.

I live in a small, eastern yuro shithole but still, HBO GO is completely localized, everything local subs and there are shitloads of local movies and documentaries and even quite a lot from other eastern yuro countries that otherwise no one would watch or know they exist

And now that Based Britain is set to leave the EU that will mean 30% of French and German "content". Enjoy your pseudo-deep drug-laced softporn.

as bad as american nigger faggot propaganda

The content that is produced by our public broadcast company can be watched for free at anytime we want, I think as long as you're in the Netherlands, and the biggest private broadcast company has their own on-demand catalog, despite barely anyone watching that one. Could become an interesting situation.

Didn't the EU fuck up the internet with censorship some 2 odd years ago? Some bill that passed easily and unnoticed. Some people kicked up a bit of stir on here and there were some people on youtube warning about it as well. Anyways, the days of everyone wanting to bridge a gap to other parts of the world with original and interesting content are have been gone for some time now. I just use google, youtube and pornhub. So I only get to see a small part of the net probably. The results you get to see are heavily filtered. Which is a pity. It's all again corporate now.

Let the europoors do their thing, user. They want to feel special while they're paying an American company so they can watch local TV.

You people are fucking retarded, this is step one.
The next step is to pay for it... through YOUR taxes. After all, if the EU demands, the EU will have to pay for it, since Netflix is neck deep in debts, they can't pay for it.
So if the EU pays for it, the European citizens will have to pay MORE taxes.
Did you hate all the interracial/homosexual/pedo propaganda that Netflix shits out? Congrats! Now you'll have to pay for it! Like the English TV licenses but worse!

Most european countries have what's called public media. BBC, DR, SVT, France TV ect. They exist under a certain set of obligations unlike private media since they are state funded. Be educational, promote local culture, encourage locally grown media ect. It sounds like a media monopoly, but it isn't since it is living side by side with the private competition which there is a lot of. I can imagine that EU did this since most people nowadays watch streaming services more than regular TV, and they want to transfer the public media system onto it. But since streaming services can't be bothered with localisation, they only offer american media, which effectively has created a monopoly.

based, less schifty things and capeshit, more Dark and eurokino

It's to promote local production instead of letting foreign stuff flood the market. Same thing happened to radio statons in several countries all across Eyrope.

It's a weird attempt to prevent international culture from becoming a thing. If you're an Alex Jones supporter, it's a kick in the face to the globalists I guess

After all, if the EU demands it*

Also, now their Marxist propaganda is being released in YOUR OWN language! Boy, I do love the EU!

>he doesn't know how to find kino

I mean, I like that this will cripple disney+ before it even comes out, but like... this seems stupid

Some of our local shows are not that bad. They have an own identity that doesn't try to imitate their bigger counterpart. This whole discussion to me is a moo point though, since I don't use streaming services. I buy physical media. Every now and then.

Aren't most of the shows already about black men fucking white women?

It's to try and make sure that not all the media you consume is American (speaking from the perspective of a non-American)

Don't think their intentions are noble in any kind of way. I'm all for more choice on the menu but that's not what they have in mind.

Why can't they just set up a website or streaming platform to make it available to people who want it instead of dumping more trash on the already garbage filled catalogs of netflix + other platforms. Is it because they know no one would watch state programming on purpose? I sort of feel sorry for you EU fags like what the fuck were they thinking. Was this something you voted on or was it "voted" in for you by "representatives"?

They already have that, but remember that it is state funded. The website is absolute garbage and most of the old shit just randomly disappears.
>Is it because they know no one would watch state programming on purpose?
I haven't heard anyone bitch about it other than the fact that it is state funded. The content itself is usually of pretty high quality.

Do americans vote on every piece of legislation? No, we both vote in representatives and let them deal with it unless it is something major (which this isn't).

It’s just a way to make money for the EU. They’ll pay the fine and continue as they are now

Or you could try a revolutionary new approach of letting people choose what they want for themselves.

WHAT!? No. I think it's just better if the government tells websites what kind of content they're allowed to have and how much. It just makes yurosense you see.

Do Americans get to watch europbs now? It might be cool to see a bunch of different shit our sub fees aren't paying for this time.

>it's user finds out why fascism sucks episode

If yuros want to watch yuro content can't they just do it on a yuro streaming service instead of requiring every streaming service in the world to cater to them? All this means is that companies like Netflix are going to bid bottom dollar to get programs that was technically produced in these countries. It doesn't mean they're actually going to make anything good for you yurotards.

If a giant meteor struck Brussels and collapsed the EU into a pile of dust, they would be a day to celebrate. Fuck E*ropean """people"""

I love the EU.

I highly doubt that all those streaming services will be compensated in any way.

>Did you hate all the interracial/homosexual/pedo propaganda that Netflix shits out?
Thats entirely due to Americans loving that stuff.

>to get programs that was technically produced

Honestly I can see them simply not operating in the EU and then the EU begging them to come back.

>OMG I hate Europe and Europeans!
>Why cant you just BE Americans!?

How about you white genocide a bit faster than you currently are?

They will literally have to be. Netflix is already neck deep in debt as it is, most likely they simply do not have the money to make a bunch of EXTRA shows simply because the EU wants that.

So since they probably can't even afford it, they'd either stop with Netflix being available in the EU (obviously not gonna happen) or the EU has to fund it themselves, either fully or in part. And that makes much more sense, since this gives a perfect excuse to tax Europeans more and get more money.

Again, Netflix is already in debt, the idea that they can make extra shows just because the EU says so is impossible. Or they'd have to accept more debts for it but the EU taxing Euros more makes more sense imo.

They certainly won't get money from the govs, they will simply rise the price or flood catalog with the cheapest local garbage they can find which will result limiting better content.

>American business turning down money no matter what the other costs are
Are you from an alternate dimension?

Yes, I reworded a sentence and forgot to change a word. You were correct to quote this.

Who says netflix is making the programming? They are just streaming already made local shit.

Such as the TV series with constant mutt face? I dont want to watch TV shows where Africans and mixed race people pretend to be white.

Attached: mutt fave.jpg (720x405, 40K)

These quotas never work well. It just makes the required party buy up programming that was too awful to be sold anywhere else. They'll throw some pennies on the dollar crap on there that yuros will never watch, technically meet the requirements and absolutely nothing will have changed for the better.

>it's not mindless propaganda like in a totalitarian state
Nigger what? State TV is usually full of propaganda. Either of the state in question or whatever hivemind journos have in the country in question.

Why is EU internet so good bros?

If the expenses outweight the profits then yeah, they're not gonna do it. If the EU isn't covering the costs they won't have the money to do it. These streaming services are in no way profitable.

The market is way too big for that. Such a stunt would crash their stock value. The streaming services has made a disgusting amount of money so the whole "we can't afford royalties" is just a ridiculous claim. They'll bitch, but suck it up

M8, this isn't something euros wanted, it's just that some euro streaming companies/TV producers probably lobbied for it and EU officials are always eager to fuck over American companies.

Based 'having a stroke'-poster.

Are you German by any chance?

You need to make money and the more you diversify and cater to the needs of what are basically negligeable groups the smaller your margin of profit gets and the bigger your business needs to be for it to be sustainable. That's my brainlet understanding anyway. So I don't get why we have to keep on diversifying while they're cutting into their own profits basically. It would be better to have one concentrated channel through which you get your information. The people who don't like this system could rebel against it and it would be part of their identity. Now it's all become so scattered and entangled and people don't really have a group to latch onto anymore. What should be great: 'Everyone gets to choose' has become one giant clusterfuck basically where everyone is divided and the big dogs are feasting on the bones. I reckon it's as much the fault of the masses as it is of the elite. Wanting everything for the cheapest price and the whole year around, while retaining your power of purchase. Let's take in some shitskins too, to soothe our conciensnesses. But don't raise the taxes! Don't take our jobs! Corporations are always without conscience, everyone knows from the getgo. But we turn a blind eye when we can eat strawberries in wintertime. Globalism is a shitty turd and the consumer is just as much at fault for being a lazy complacent shit.

National rights distributors fucking international companies in the ass again using the EU as a hammer to pass laws with which they can gain guaranteed income. They're fucking leeches. And the EU a fucking threat to the people in Europe. Such an utterly corrupt pile of fucking shit.

This is not representative. It is telling about Marxism and how it has seeped in through education though.

It's not coming from the people. It's corporations using the EU to manufacture revenue streams. See, they hold the distribution rights for national content. By forcing the streaming services to have a quota, they are guaranteed to have licensing revenue for those 30% written in law. It's simple as this. Money. Fuck the people, fuck the nations, fuck Europe. All they care about is money and the EU exists to facilitate their will. That's all the EU has ever been about. It just gets dressed up in democracy and other feelgood PR to give it the image of legitimacy and benevolence.

In all fairness, Europe doesn't have much of a movie industry. Other than France and Germany maybe. Italy had two directors I can think of, but that's not a movie industry. As far as joint collaborations go I can't think of another one than ' The Neverending Story'. I'm sure there's been others, But it's always a hassle to get funding. 'Tv shows' as kids was mostly just imported cartoons from Japan. Feel free to prove me wrong though.

Based EU but I don't care, I'll never subscribe to netflix.

>This is just the EU being protectionist arseholes, like they are in everything because they can't make their own internet/technology giants they've got to punish American ones.

You think it would've been different if it was the other way around? Fat fucks who slip on a McDonalds floor sue over there just because the system entitles them too. But you are right, it's just the EU flexing. Which seems laughable, because they're always trying to take the moral high ground.

stfu retard, that's what happened in England and even in other European countries, part of the taxes go to public broadcasting.
Not only WILL it happen, it's ALREADY happening.
But now you can add Netflix to the list.

This law is useless. Netflix could just offer its normal catalogue and then pay some bulgarian hobo 20 euros to rant into a mic for a week straight or however long 30% would be. Thus meeting the local content quota for that country.

They wouldnt have to actually produce or license quality locally produced content.

>All this will do is drive netflix and other streaming services out of your countries
How is that a bad thing, oh wait, you're one of those mouthbreathing retards who watch netflix.

Documentaries. Those hiking programs where people go to different villages. Gardening programs. Cooking shows. TV shows. In my case nordic noir would be the most obvious example of something with local culture. Movies that takes place locally. By "promote local culture" its not meant as a nationalistic wank fest, but rather just something we can relate to. An American program where a guy travels around and try different BBQ is promoting American culture, but it doesn't say much to a lot of europeans since they can't relate culturally

see
It's about money.

So the catalogue is going to get even worse because Netflicks will pick up whatever trash is on offer which, naturally, won't have much in the way of rival competition. It's going to be Women's football news all over again where people just scroll passed that shit to what they want to see.

>And what happens when Netflix says "Fuck off"?

>And what happens when Netflix says "Fuck off"?

Netflix becomes literally illegal in a market area of about a billion first-world consumers.

There is literally nothing wrong with being nationalistic and protecting your borders.
t. Euro

Ignore """people""" like . He's probably a Swede.

Honestly they should just ban Netflix completely, Netflix is shit.

Like Apple, Facebook and Google fucked off from Europe when they got fined for tens of billions... Oh wait, they paid up like little bitches and bent over backwards to serve the EU market.

EU takes free money outta mutt corps pockets, whatcha gonna do about it cuck?

There is a level where lawsuits don't matter anymore though. Could you imagine Sony or Microsoft going bankrupt? Or Apple or Facebook. We've seen it with the banks. You can't run these companies into the ground. They have a bigger GDP or whatsitmacalled than some countries. Netflix is still young though, they might still get sacrificed. Seems like Amazon is above anything now too. It might happen, but I think they're close to intouchable. It happens on a national level too, where the government bails out companies. Why the fuck would you even pay taxes anymore.

>Calls other people company illiterate
>doesn't know the EU is the biggest consumer market in the world
>Oh yeah lets totally just stop selling our product in the biggest consumer market on earth as a power move against their government
I'm not defending or attacking the decision either way, but you are an idiot who clearly doesn't know the first thing about business and should stop pretending you do online to people who might not know better.

I know, user. I know..

Oy Gevalt listen to this man

Dude, I don't think you realize the difference in power between a massive coalition of nations like EU and any corporation. EU *CANNOT* lose a lawsuit. It writes the fucking laws to begin with. Anything Google or Microsoft or, yes, Netlfix, can do is file a complaint, which will be put into a shredder and they'll have the options of paying up whatever they're told or leaving the continent. All of them have chosen the former.

EU approved content only I'm sure. Enjoying paying for your own propaganda EUcucks

Not for long, lad. Which means the BBC catalog won't count against that quota. Guess it's 30% French movies and Bulgarian documentaries.

Hollywood shit is propaganda too. At least watching our own propaganda is patriotic.

yes but this shit will be directly approved by the government/EU

It just means that there must be space for the usual local stuff you fucking idiot.

It has not the big blockbuster capeshit industry, but has an industry.
Also you can also watch older stuff, that is very good. I watched 60s-80s italian movies with my parents and there is so much that is incredibly good.

Which seems funny to me, because what if Facebook, Microsoft, Google and why the fuck not even Coca Cola had a conglomerate of their own. And they told the EU they can fuck off. They wouldn't be able to sell it to the electorate. My best guess is it all overlaps, and all of this is just flexing. Some of it might leak out in public, or be made public, but so what? The riff raff don't care. I have no faith in law at that level whatsover, it's all backdoor deals. Only reason law exists is just so they can fuck with each other. Maybe it keeps us civilized, or maybe it doesn't. But I do not believe in the power of Human written Law. You need to be with two consenting parties to begin with. One of them tells you to fuck off. What are you going to do? To me, I think we're back at schoolground level and it's survival of the biggest thug. The Law might be something holy, but of what use is the law when you can just postpone a case indefinetely just because you have the money?

Long story short: They paid, if they paid at all, because they wanted too. Not because they were muscled out. Just taking a stab in the dark though.

That pic is spammed a lot , but is confirmed not being made by any EU organization.

The man has good work ethic though. He lives and breathes politics. He's also a vain and dangerous man who'd sacrifice his own mother just to get a footnote in the history books. I think he really believes in the European Project. I saw where he got his question in with kikeberg. Gloating and condescending as fuck. Him getting acclaim from his stooge European collegeaus while he's the biggest stooge himself is scary. European Army, why don't you go fuck yourself. He's an egomaniac on a powertrip. I'm glad the bongs took some of the wind from his sails. He never forgave them for it. We in Belgium, were just glad to get him out of the way. He was gone to the European level and we never had to see him again.

lmao

>wants a supranational government that overrides everything
>h-he’s a libertarian

Europeans are thick. That’s why you elect people like Merkel who import rapists and bombers.

He's VLD, he wants lower taxes and shit like that

He wants to use EU for leverage in economic negotiations etc.

Basically United States of Europe. It has nothing to do with left or right wing.

Being pro-EU doesn't mean being pro left wing politics as the EU is comprised of a parlement of different parties, left and right wing. The right wing parties had the majority last election. It's probably going to go down with the increase of mudslimes though.

look at his fucking politics retard, hes spent decades building up the power of an international governing body, thats easily the most non-libertarian thing I've ever heard of

It does suck we have to agree or disagree to cookies on every site we visit now. It's a small inconvenience, but you get fucked with commercials all day long on the internet anyway. So was there really a fucking point? Was it the EU protecting it's users or was it just people flexing? I'm pretty careful with what I do, but I reckon 50% of my life is available on the internet anyway. And I'm ancient, anyone born after 1995 has 80% of their life available on the internet for sure. What the fuck are these cookies gonna do? At least we have a choice? Really, that's what you think matters to us? How about you give us some choice on the issue of immigration you dumbfucks.

I'm not even saying he's right I'm just trying to explain his ideology.

Imagine a Texan during the Civil war that believes in limited government but also believes the US should be united to get better trade agreements with Canada and Mexico.

Now EU is not the US and he believes giving the EU more power will help Europe economically by making it more cohesive like the US. I don't know if I agree with that, but that's irrelevant, that's what he believes. He's a pro EU libertarian. That's his ideology. He isn't a socialist.

>different parties, left and right wing
>right wing
>in Europe
Lololololololololol, oh my god, only difference between all-leftshit EU parliament is that some of those leftists have more national leaning and don't want to kill all Europeans outright.

We voted for them so they represent what right wing Europeans want out of the EU. If not we will vote for another party that is more aligned with our opinion about the future of the EU.

not the user, But I reckon I'm a pro Eu libertarian. Easy how you explained it. Never thought of myself as a libertarian before, seeing as I see it thrown around as an insult so much on here. It's nice to be able to finally put a label on it. Maybe this is how attack helicopters feel.

libertarians dont exist outside of the US
hes pro-big gov, aka not a fucking libertarian. you eurotards have stupid views on politics

Does that mean you'll see European written content? It can't be worse than the American too shit for hollywood liberal writers.

Libertarians are anti big government. Verhofstadt literally wants another tier of government on top of national governments.

You’re retarded.

End goal for the EU is to replace national governments.

>libertarians dont exist outside of the US
And you say we have stupid views on politics?

America changed a lot of political jargon and colors from the standard that the rest of the world uses (like less government is blue, more is red. But the US reverses this).

In Europe Libertarians are called Liberals, they want less taxes and less government regulations, their color is blue. I simply used the term "libertarian"before because this is an American website and you would confuse "liberal" for what you call "liberal"which is closer to what we in Europe would call "social-democrats" or "christian-democrats"or something like that. In your views Christians are right wing, but in Europe most Christian parties are more center left. Everything left of that is socialist parties (red) or green parties (which are basically extreme socialists most of the time). Right of Liberals (=libertarians) are the Nationalistic parties. They are almost always actually National Socialists, but nobody uses that label for obvious reasons. They are represented right of Liberals for historical reasons, but in the economic sense they are far left of liberals.

Liberals in Europe are Libertarians in the US. They want everything American Libertarians want, they just have a worse start (Europe is way more socialist than America) so they argue over other points because they pendulum is so much more shifted towards the left.

The best tv show on netflix now is a german one, there is also some great spanish show apparently that I'm not interested in.

This the EU, not the UK, lmao
Most handholding laws in the EU came from UK MEP's

BREXIT CANT COME FAST ENOUGH

Also in the EU we sell stuff to each other.
Say in italy there are french, spanish, german, austrian etc tv series that were or are popular.
With less bullshit compared to much american stuff (but that is bought anyway).

You clearly didn't read anything I said.

Hey look it's another retard who fell for the EU bogeyman!

they cant make good tv so they make it law that Netflix pays for the shows nobody likes.

>what happens when Netflix says "Fuck off"?
they probably pay a fine and that fine is almost certainly much less than all the shitty licensing fees for all those shitty local shows. They just have to be able to prove that they're putting in a tiny amount of effort and they can just pay the fine annually and will likely never see any real punishment.

True. I always found it weird that most Americans only found out about Der Untergang (Downfall) from those meme videos. I heard some American say that this was an unknown movie until those memes. Which struck me as weird as I saw it in the cinema in German and I'm not even German. It was kind of a blockbuster in theaters here.

See the comments above.
"In Europe there is not movie industry".
For le 56% anything that is not capeshit-tier production is not an industry.

Retard, the EU gets its money from the taxes of the EU citizens. If Netflix can't fund these shows, the EU will have to. A.k.a the European citizens will have to pay more taxes.
