If the 2011 issue of No. 181 is a management In the terminal, the content of Document No. 204 is the content, which may end the long-term management of the dual-track system of the Internet and the cable network by the Directorate General, so that everyone will return to the same starting line.

With the rapid development of communication technologies, by the end of September, domestic broadband users have surpassed 200 million, approaching 230 million users of cable television. Cable TV faces serious challenges from the Internet. Users do not only watch cable TV at home, but pass. PCs can watch online video websites, or download APPs for video websites on mobile phone PADs.

The play must be used for personal use. It must not be sold only.

The General Administration of China encourages qualified Internet audio-video program service websites to introduce overseas television dramas with healthy, well-produced and advanced truth, goodness, and beauty. However, overseas films and television dramas broadcasted online must be approved by the Press and Publication Radio and TV Department and issued approval documents such as the "Pictures for the Public Release of Films" and the "Permit for the Distribution of TV Dramas", and the information network dissemination rights granted by copyright holders should be obtained.

Posted on the platform.

According to the relevant information released by the “Online Online Film and TV Play Introduction Information Unified Registration Platform”, each site will sign an import agreement with the copyright owner according to the annual introduction plan.

The regulations of Document No. 204 are rather rigorous and meticulous. It seems that the General Administration of Communications has already managed the video site as a TV station. It is no wonder that the video site is a “TV station” on the Internet and covers all the Internet users through 200 million broadband and 1.2 billion mobile phones. . The cable television network is not allowed to manage its own programs. It can only transmit live broadcasts of television stations. The television stations are also bound by the radio and television regulations. They are certainly unable to compete with video sites, and cable has always complained about dual-track management.
