EU Commission and industry adopt "Film Online Charter"

On Tuesday, Viviane Reding, the EU Commissioner for the Information Society and Media, presented the officially adopted the "Film Online Charter" at the film festival in Cannes. Under the aegis of Reding, the Charter was worked up by institutions and companies from the motion picture and media industry -- such as the BBC, Constantin Film, Time Warner and Vivendi -- along with major access and content providers like France Telecom. On this roadmap, the partners from industry and politics plan to promote the sale of videos via the Internet. The battle against copyright violations and the use of technical protection measures play an important role in the process.
