The deal is understood to cover Orange Studio and OCS, the film, television, and pay-TV units of Orange. OCS is France’s second largest pay-TV service after Canal+. Any such deal would need approval from the relevant regulatory bodies, such as the Autorité de la concurrence (Competition Authority).
