ISTANBUL (Reuters) - The Turkish Competition Board said on Sunday it has opened an investigation into subscription-based, on-demand video service providers, including Netflix, Disney and Amazon.
The decision was taken after a preliminary inquiry into whether the service providers violated competition law, it said in a statement.
The investigation will look into whether service providers Netflix, Disney+, Amazon, BluTV, Exxen and Gain violated an article of the competition law through exclusive agreements and other restrictive agreements and practices.
