Competition Law Problems Raised by the Entry of Incumbent Telecommunications Operators in the Media Content Delivery Market

D. Geradin

Competition and Regulation in Network Industries, 2005, vol. 6, issue 3, 143-163

Abstract: This paper analyses the competition law issues, which can arise from the entry of telecommunications incumbents in the market for the delivery of media content. While the entry of telecommunications incumbents on this usually concentrated market can increase competition, it may also raise some concern, especially considering the fact that such incumbents usually remain dominant on several markets, thereby raising risks of leveraging strategies. Whether entry of telecommunications incumbents increases or decreases competition in media content delivery is a question of fact, which depends on the circumstances of each case.
