And, while we're on the subject of streaming TV... BBC Three's being simulcast in Flash now! (I guess to be integrated into /iPlayer at a later date once the kinks have been worked out, because it's certainly using the same player and streaming platform.) This sneaked out the door while I wasn't looking! For others: <http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcthree/livearena/> http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcthree/livearena/ (found purely by chance via BBC Internet blog post talking about new BBC Three web site). Streaming in Flash, hopefully will make its way to codec-based streaming soon (so I can watch it on my WM6-based phone in WMV format!) And, while we're on the subject of BBC Three: does anybody know (BBC bods or otherwise) if the Three blobs will ever make a comeback (online or otherwise)? I can definitely say that the Woods household misses them already, it was sad seeing them sing "so long, fare well, auf wiedersehn goodbye" before Two Pints on Sunday ;'( - an online archive of all the idents would be ace, and would Add Value too.

Al Jazera was slower to start than News 24, and the French channels work. I was a bit disappointed - but not surprised - to find BBC World Service than BBC World. It's ahead of the News 24 Windows Media stream, which is interesting.

Just installing this latest build onto my laptop now, hopefully the quality's not decreased since I last used it :) And, knowing me, I'll end up blogging about it instead of doing work tonight, I have a bad habit of doing that.
