It appears that the latest 'improvements' have definitely been a bit of
a disaster.
Good, hope it gets canned. This all just a waste of money and effort.

You think? It looks like part of the future of TV to me.

IMO the BBC should be collecting revenue for allowing downloading, not giving it away for free to the well healed. Secondly, some of that income - and that earned of other *paid* streaming / download services - should be taxed by the goverment and used to fund means to bring down the 'digital divide'.
