Dear All,
The Editorial Board of Images would like to inform you that until further notice, we are temporarily suspending the acceptance of texts to the Varia section. The reason for this is the huge number of articles received for this section and the long time required for publication of such articles.
As soon as the situation changes, we will inform you about it.

Streaming platforms are bringing about a transformative shift in the global audiovisual industry. The local audiovisual market in Poland is experiencing notable changes due to the growing influence of these streaming platforms. While researchers in Anglo-American contexts extensively analyze the repercussions of global players like Netflix, Disney +, HBO Max, Apple or Amazon, the impact of these media giants’ activities have been overlooked in media and film studies in Poland. A current priority is to identify areas where the influence of Netflix, Disney and HBO and other streaming platforms on the Polish industry is substantial, leading to observable changes in established practices and work systems. This thematic issue aims to explore the impact of streaming as globalizing forces and digital technologies, both locally and globally. We invite authors to reflect upon ongoing political, economic, creative and technological disruptions, and their long-term societal implications.
