The use of audiovisual content services on-demand is catching up with traditional media at a dizzying speed. The growing popularity of on-demand services is based on extremely widespread use by young people, which raises the question of protection of minors from some of this on-demand media content. The protection of minors is a shared responsibility between the legislature and parents, but parents sometimes feel overwhelmed by this responsibility. This only serves to strengthen the role of the legislator when it comes to the protection of children.This IRIS Plus analyses the protection of minors in the field of on-demand audiovisual content. It examines the position of the EU on this subject as well as the basic principles and specific rules contained in the different national systems.

LEAD ARTICLE

The Protection of Minors in theCase of New (Non-Linear) Media
European Legal Rules and their National Transposition and Application

To what extent the law of the EU and its member states already contains provisions for protecting underage users of on-demand audiovisual services, how these provisions are to be understood and, if and when the occasion arises, applied and enforced is the subject of this lead article. Finally a cautious assessment of the current situation is made regarding the protection of children and young people in the case of new on-demand audiovisual services. Looking to the future, this assessment also takes account of so-called "connected TV" (smart TV).
