M6主张修改法国媒体法, 以便合并并与美国流体巨人竞争。 M6 pushes for French media law changes to enable mergers and compete with U.S. streaming giants.

法国广播公司M6在CMA CGM的支持下, 正在敦促改革法国过时的媒体法, 允许产业合并, French broadcaster M6, backed by CMA CGM, is urging reforms to France’s outdated media laws to allow industry consolidation and better compete with U.S. streaming giants. 现行规则,包括为期五年的数码地面电视许可证锁闭,阻碍了合并和限制规模,这与其他欧洲市场不同,欧洲广播机构如RTL和MediaForEurope等已经合并。 Current rules, including a five-year digital terrestrial TV licence lock-up, hinder mergers and limit scale, unlike in other European markets where broadcasters like RTL and MediaForEurope have merged. 现在串流占法国每日视频消费的39%,迫使M6和RTL主张缩短两年的许可期,有可能在2028年之前使并购成为可能。 Streaming now accounts for 39% of daily video consumption in France, pushing M6 and RTL to advocate for a shorter two-year licence period, potentially enabling M&A by 2028. 文化部长Rachida Dati支持改革, 但三月市政选举前政局不稳可能会推迟行动。 Culture Minister Rachida Dati supports the change, but political instability ahead of March’s municipal elections may delay action. 虽然先前的M6-TF1兼并因反托拉斯问题而失败,但人们,特别是意大利的MediaFor Europe仍然感兴趣,因为行业领导人认为,在变化的观感习惯和全球竞争中,合并是必不可少的。 While a prior M6-TF1 merger failed over antitrust concerns, interest remains, especially from Italy’s MediaForEurope, as industry leaders see consolidation as essential amid shifting viewing habits and global competition.
