Alexey Byrdin, General Director of the Association “Internet video”, commented on the material. “War of the exclusives”.

Return to exclusivity is a natural process at the current stage of development of the legal VOD market. Competition between services is escalating, and buying exclusive rights is one of the available ways to add value to your subscription. That`s normal! Nobody accuses Amediateka in unfriendly behavior to subscribers because of exclusive with HBO?

But the strangest and most dangerous thing in this material is the hope for FAS as the market savior. That can only be considered by one who does not understand the law and is not aware of the terrible consequences of the abolition of the exclusion of intellectual property from the scope of antimonopoly regulation.
