Abstract

The Internet allows the provision of on-demand audiovisual media services to an extent which was not possible in the past due to technological limitations. Such varied services are subject to different legal regimes. The basis for these differences can be found in taking responsibility for the content of such services. The medium used to transmit the content cannot be the sole decisive criterion for assessing whether liability associated with the provision of a given type of service is within media law, or if it is excluded from it. The article considers regulatory differences with respect to on-demand services with regard to the protection one fundamental value – the right to privacy.
