I need to make a confession - it appears that I uploaded a non-finished
version of the interview to blip - it contained a fade halfway through Peter
Brown’s interview - this was not intentional! I’ve now uploaded the correct
version and hope you can all forgive me :-)

And from inside the BBC we have a reply from Ashley Highfield
(head of future media and technology).
We've added it to the blog post -

Here's a snip-it from Ashley's reply to single platform lock in
"We believe in Universality, I would not let our content be
restricted to one platform. Beyond IP, we are also exploring how we can get
versions of BBC iPlayer on to Freeview (DTT), FreeSat, and have plans to
launch on cable with Virgin Media. We look closely at all possible platforms
for distribution. PDAs, media centres, city centre video screens, kiosks, and
so on. Some platforms require particular technologies, and some may simply not
be economically viable for us to reversion for or distribute to (we must always
weigh up the cost per person reached)."
Cheers,
Ian Forrester

“It was a very wet morning but that didn't stop around
20 people turning out to let the BBC know exactly what they thought of its use
of DRM in iPlayer.
We've pulled those comments together and made a special
podcast which you can download from here;
