#regulation of Netflix

The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) has recently sought the content regulation of online streaming services, such as Netflix, in the Philippines. Presquito said that the regulation will ensure that available content on the streaming services like Netflix and iFlix are age-appropriate, unprohibited, and authorized. A couple of days ago, Netflix made the announcement that it will soon launch in key South East Asia countries which includes Singapore and Hong Kong as well as Taiwan and South Korea. Netflix targets the roll out of their service in these 4 countries early 2016. Once launched, Internet users will be able to subscribe to Netflix and instantly watch a curated selection of popular TV shows and movies in high-definition or even Ultra HD 4K on nearly any Internet-connected screen. Netflix first became available in Asia earlier this month with the start of service in Japan. "The combination of increasing Internet speeds and ubiquity of connected devices provides consumers with the anytime, anywhere ability to enjoy their favorite TV shows and movies on the Netflix service," said Reed Hastings, chief executive officer of Netflix. "These four markets well represent those trends." With a constantly improving user experience, advanced personalization technology and a curated selection of TV shows and films, Netflix members are able to create their own viewing experience and can easily discover new favorites, while reconnecting with popular characters and stories.
