Why is Sky comfortable with the content levy or even an investment obligation in other European countries? Sky Italia pays an investment obligation, which I believe is 12.5%.

A levy in Germany dates back to the 1960s. Why are Sky's companies in those states comfortable with the content levy while it is pushing back against it here or seeking to delay it?
