But that is the point. The EC Advocate General says that we should be able to subscribe to TV services from any country in the EU. But that was only her advice, no laws have been implemented yet but in the past those recommendations have virtually always been implemented, there is a very clear mandate for this in the past.

So if it becomes law it may well be that broadcasters in future have to buy pan european rights rather than territorial rights as they do now, the ramifications are huge.
