I referred to new TV sets produced for the (Western bloc) European local markets in general, not only France. While the manufacturers eventually went “the French way”, SCART was never a legal requirement in other European countries. | |

SCART enabled the introduction of Pay-TV with the creation of Canal+ in 1984, which required an external decoder to watch its programs (including p0rn). | |
