Abstract

This paper illustrates not only the effectiveness of applying content quota system for on-demand video streaming platform, but also the effect of OTT regulation on copyright protection and cultural industry protection in a single market, focusing on the community's response to Netflix's entry into the EU market. Additionally, this paper examines on-demand video streaming services, growth of Netflix. The EU policy on the on-demand video streaming service market consists of 'portability' in the digital single market and content quota for copyright protection. In this paper, I analyze the market protection and the aspect of improving competitiveness of online streaming service industry. The EU is trying to protect the cultural industry and copyright protection in the region by applying and regulating the OTT business in content quota system, which has been applied only to European broadcasting companies.

본 논문에서는 온디맨드 비디오 스트리밍 플랫폼에 대한 콘텐츠 쿼터제 적용의 실효성 확보 방안에 관하여 분석하였다. 특히 넷플릭스(Netflix)의 EU시장 진출에 대한 공동체의 대응을 중심으로 단일시장 내 저작권 보호 및 문화산업 보호에 관한 OTT 규제의 효과성을 분석하였다. 온디맨드 비디오 스트리밍 서비스와 넷플릭스의 성장 그리고 넷플릭스의 EU 시장 진출에 대해 고찰하고 있다. 다음으로 EU 내 온디맨드 비디오 스트리밍 서비스 현황을 분석한다. 온디맨드 비디오 스트리밍 서비스 시장 대응에 관한 EU의 정책은 디지털 단일 시장 내 '이동성(portability)' 그리고 저작권 보호를 위한 콘텐츠 쿼터제 등으로 구성되며, OTT 규제의 세부지침의 고찰을 통해 시장보호 그리고 온라인 스트리밍 서비스업의 경쟁력 제고 방안 측면을 분석하였다. EU는 유럽 방송사업자에게만 적용되어 온 콘텐츠 쿼터제를 OTT 사업에 적용, 규제함으로써 역내 문화산업 보호 및 저작권 보호 강화를 도모하고 있다.
