The BBC is funded by UK public through the TV licence. My understanding is that the last review of the BBC by a UK Parliamentary committee mandated that any improvements of services were to be delivered to the users who paid for the service (i.e. UK only) and not as a freebie to the whole world. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49830 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
