According to SDA, the French-speaking Swiss television station TSR has won the legal tug-of-war with the French private broadcaster M6. According to the statement, M6 broadcast films and series in French-speaking Switzerland for which TSR had exclusive rights.
M6 has been broadcasting with two signals in parts of French-speaking Switzerland since fall 2001. The second signal broadcasts the Swiss advertising windows. In TSR's view, M6 is infringing copyright with these advertising blocks aimed at the Swiss market and is also engaging in unfair competition.
In particular, M6 is thus exploiting the exclusive broadcasting rights acquired by TSR for Switzerland for various films and series. As TSR announced on Wednesday, the Court of Appeal of the Canton of Fribourg ruled that M6 had infringed copyrights and was engaging in unfair competition.
