摘要

平台通常在非价格策略上展开竞争，比如独家分销产品。但这些策略并不总是能提高福利。通过对巴西各平台上发行的音像内容的丰富数据分析，我们发现，在阻止网络盗版方面，跨平台的非排他性发行和游戏的可用性比单一渠道更有效。此外，对于国产电影子集，它会导致上游对新片质量的平均投资更高。我们将根据这些发现讨论版权和竞争政策的选择。

Exclusive content and platform competition in Latin America

Platforms often compete over non-price strategies such as the exclusive distribution of products. But these strategies are not always welfare-enhancing. Using rich data on audiovisuals distributed on platforms in Brazil, we find that non-exclusive distribution and availability of titles across platforms is more effective in deterring online piracy than in the single-homing case. Moreover, for the subset of domestic movies, it induces higher average investment in the quality of new titles upstream. We discuss options of copyright and competition policies in the light of these findings.
