MAVISE is a database edited and published by the European Audiovisual Observatory listing tv and on-demand audiovisual companies and services in Europe. As of August 2017 there are 42 national TV markets, over 12,000 television channels, and 1,200 on-demand audiovisual services, 9,100 companies (broadcasters, packagers, transmitters).
The main aims of MAVISE are to provide better knowledge of the audiovisual market and more transparency, essential if the market is to operate properly and to ensure the laws governing it are relevant. MAVISE enables the European Audiovisual Observatory to provide the audiovisual industry, institutional decision-makers, and the general public with all the information they need about developments affecting the European market for television and on-demand audiovisual services even more regularly and efficiently than before. Companies in the audiovisual sector may also benefit considerably from this project.
A drawback is that the text on the site is set in too small a font size and thus difficult to read.

The Association Science & Télévision (AST) is a group of independent producers working for 37 different production companies based in France. These companies produce films in all genres but a large portion of their output is devoted to scientific productions. Together, they produce the vast majority of scientific programming broadcast on television in France, much of which also circulates abroad. The website (in French and English versions) gives details of the member companies and the association’s activities, together with a catalogue of the films they have produced (searchable by title or producer), with links to the producer’s site for further filmographic information.

In May 2016 the Open University Worldwide online store posted the following:
"Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the “Good Study Guide”, and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice."
