I'd also point to the pioneering work of my radio colleagues in negotiating with record companies, equity and others the framework so that for the past 6-7 years a rights position has existed that has allowed for (worldwide in most cases) on demand radio listening for 7 days for 90% of the BBC's music and speech output across 8 national radio networks...
Cool! So how can we the public support those efforts? :-) And how can we connect that success with radio to the failure of the television side that has accepted such nasty restrictions?
effectively the Cabinet Office has warmly received proposals to change the rights framework of its (considerable) public information and data because the BBC (and Google and others) has pioneered this approach.
This is good to know about, and perhaps Backstage should be more widely publicizing this :-) -- Regards, Dave - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
