US wins trade dispute with China over CDs, DVDs
2009-07-22
GENEVA - Officials say the U.S. has largely prevailed in a trade dispute with China over restrictions on the sale of American CDs, DVDs, books and computer software. Officials familiar with the World Trade Organization ruling are telling The Associated Press that the WTO found Beijing is breaking trade rules by forcing U.S. goods to be sold through Chinese state-owned companies. The officials say the still-confidential ruling stops short of a complete U.S. victory. It allows China to make U.S. films go through one of two distributors to be shown in Chinese cinemas, a requirement that doesn't apply to Chinese movies. The officials spoke about the ruling on condition of anonymity because of confidentiality rules ahead of its publication.
