Project Free TV - is it legal?
- Offering copyrighted content is illegal and not allowed in Germany.
- Project Free TV's top-level domain .bz stands for Belize and is therefore outside the German legal system. This is the reason why the operators of the website are currently still on the safe side.
- However, according to a recent ruling by the European Court of Justice, streaming copyrighted material through portals like Project Free TV is now illegal.
- If you are caught illegally streaming, you will have to pay a warning fee of around 150 euros per stream plus the conventional streaming price of around five euros.
- We do not recommend using such streaming platforms. Instead, use legal streaming services such as Amazon Instant Video or Netflix. These services have acquired the rights to your content.
