Sorry. I meant streaming crap quota, of course. You know, when it comes to what Netflix and Amazon Prime is allowed to offer its customers here in Europe?
That’s right. The European Commission is planning to introduce a quota ensuring that at least 20 percent of the content offered by Netflix and Amazon Prime are European productions. This “identity-building measure” is necessary, the commissioners say, in order to, well, build identity (the European Commission’s identity?) and of course to continue to protect films and series that nobody wants or intends to watch but to keep on subsidizing anyway (“culture” in ze Europe is regulated by unelected state bureaucrats who know better than you and are here to help you whether you want their help or not and not by yucky old and vulgar supply and demand – just in case you were wondering).
Hollywood has gone global. Take for an example the series “Game of Thrones.” The actors are from different countries. There is even a character called the “Mountain,” who is played by a former Icelandic wrestler. The scenes are filmed mostly in Northern Ireland, Croatia and Spain. The film crew in the credits reflect these countries. So, I don’t get it! What is the EU’s beef?
