Threatened by potential EU regulatory changes, the movie, music, and sports industries are vehemently defending the practice of geo-blocking, as an essential part of their business models. Rightsholders argue that eliminating geo-blockades would devalue content, force price hikes for consumers in some countries, and ultimately reduce investment in content and localized services.

The industry can go fuck itself. Actors, Football players, CEOs et al, don't need to earn 25M€ per year. Spend less in wages for those cunts and you'll see profitability rise without geoblocking.
