<h2>Why geoblocking must end</h2>
<ol>
<li>
<h3>Geoblocking is discrimination</h3>
<p>
Linguistic minorities, long-term migrants, exchange students, etc. – 1 in 10 Europeans<abbr title="1 in 10 Europeans speak a minority language - Davyth Hicks, ELEN"><sup><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktXuLZ5qYOo#t=29m6s" target="_blank">[ELEN]</a></sup></abbr> – are denied access to their culture online.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<h3>Geoblocking locks in artists</h3>
<p>
Many artists' works are denied a Europe-wide audience – and fans ready to pay are turned away.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<h3>Geoblocking locks out audiences</h3>
<p>
Language learners, foreign sports league fans etc. are forced to pay VPNs instead of creators, or seek out illegal sources.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<h3>Geoblocking betrays EU principles</h3>
<p>
The EU is supposed to be a single market. Geoblocking undermines that. The EU must act – like it did on roaming.
</p>
</li>
<li class="last">
<h3>Geoblocking harms the economy</h3>
<p>
Up to 1.6 billion Euros worth of cross-border demand is kept from EU VoD platforms, EU startups and artists.<abbr title="Estimated potential demand among intra-EU migrants for subscription-based cross-border audiovisual media services - Plum Consulting, 2012 (pg. 157)"><sup><a href="http://ec.europa.eu/internal_market/media/docs/elecpay/plum_tns_final_en.pdf" target="_blank">[Plum]</a></sup></abbr>
