What happened

A coalition of high-profile US talent agencies and producers has formed to push for limits on how studios and streamers own original content. The American Entertainment Alliance (AEA) will advocate for legislation requiring major entertainment services to commission shows from independent producers. The group also seeks to allow independent producers to own their shows and limit the duration of exclusive licensing terms.
