The proposed law was the result of European Commission’s efforts to create a unified market for the streaming services. Portability of digital content has always been debatable and with the passage of this law it is quite possible that it might add a degree of clarity. According to Reuters, subscribers who have paid for the services like the Sky TV Now, 1MaxDome TV and ProSiebenSat will still be able to view the same temporarily when they are roaming in European Union. The Temporarily clause leaves a lot of possibilities open but Netflix is yet to define how they would cap this temporary clause.
