01/10/2011 Authors: Alexander Scheuer and Sebastian Schweda, Institute for European Media Law (EMR), Saarbrücken/Brussels
IRIS Plus 2011-6: Limits to the Use of Personal Data

At the end of September, Facebook announced a plan to extend their service in order to, as it stated, enable users to create a “Life Archive” and thus offer an unlimited number of “friends” all the details and events of their own lives at the click of a mouse. Who would have thought twenty years...

IRIS Plus 2011-3: Media Literacy

IRIS Plus 2011-2: An Insight into Selected Film Funding Systems

01/04/2011 Authors: Christian M. Bron and Peter Matzneller, Institute of European Media Law (EMR), Saarbrücken/Brussels
IRIS Plus 2011-2: An Insight into Selected Film Funding Systems

Film aid is not only designed to promote creativity, but it can also be remarkably creative itself in terms of the way it is organised.

IRIS Plus 2010-6: Switchover to the Digital Dividend

01/12/2010 Authors: David Korteweg & Tarlach McGonagle, Institute for Information Law (IViR), Faculty of Law, University of Amsterdam
IRIS Plus 2010-6: Switchover to the Digital Dividend

Like Siamese twins, the switchover to digital television is inseparable from the spectrum liberated as a result of the process. The twin of the switchover is called digital dividend. If we look closer at these twins, we realize that they are non-identical, as far as at least one important point...

IRIS Plus 2010-2: Digital Cinema

01/04/2010 Authors: Francisco Javier Cabrera Blázquez, European Audiovisual Observatory
IRIS Plus 2010-2: Digital Cinema

The European cinema of the near future will be digital. This much seems to be agreed upon by anyone who has a say in the matter.
