Letv files suit for damages from Baidu
Print Edition
CHINESE online video website Letv has filed a 1 million yuan (US$153,400) lawsuit against Internet giant Baidu for illicit competition, accusing the latter of blocking all advertisements while streaming online Letv to users, a Beijing court said yesterday.
Letv has been unable to acquire advertising revenue as the pre-roll, webpage and cut-in ads are blocked without authorization when users watch the Letv online stream via the Baidu Video app, according to the Haidian District People’s Court.
Because of the blocked ads, users only see videos without reference to Letv and will mistake Baidu as the source of the video, according to the indictment.
