This chapter will discuss how the European Commission (EC) has regulated media markets with reference to Public Service Broadcasters (PSBs) receiving state aids. The EU Competition Directorate has licensed PSBs in accordance with the protocol of the 1997 Amsterdam Treaty which enabled them to receive public subsidies as long as they did not distort national media markets. The Commission’s state aid measures were further established by the European Court of Justice’s (ECJ) 2003 Altmark judgment which defined the compensation levels that enterprises could receive in exchange for carrying out public service obligations.
