Will Netflix, Hotstar and other streaming services would need a license to work in India ? Looks like it the way TRAI is going. There is a proposal to consider these services as IPTV and put norms and licenses to it.
TRAI is already in works on proposals for Over The Top providers in Indian scenario. Is it the telecos who want to put a rope around streaming services ? No idea, but there is an opinion going around saying that there should be some law of land applicable to these services as in China
