The April report begins with the debates related to the new trade agenda of the Trump administration and the potential impact on policy measures toward Video on Demand (VOD) streamers, such as the European Union (EU)’s Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD). The latter allows EU member states to impose investment obligations on online streamers such as Netflix and Disney+ to support the production of European works. Besides, benefiting from the new US trade agenda, the Motion Picture Association (MPA) has recently pointed out that the US does not have such policies, and such policies and practices are, therefore, non-reciprocal non-tariff barriers. The Trump administration and the MPA also focused on the intention of the Australian government to implement local content requirements toward VOD streamers. In addition, the report highlights a new study released by the European Audiovisual Observatory on the Key Trends 2025 in the European audiovisual economy. Finally, the report focuses on new partnerships and business plans in the platform-based economy, dealing with Netflix, TikTok, HBO Max, Spotify, and YouTube.
