>From Sean's email... [snip] There is precedent: the BBC managed to convince Real to make a BBC-specific player, after all. [/snip]
The RealPlayer build that the BBC distributes was changed by Real to match our policies regarding personal data and advertising, and not the codecs that were contained within it. So I don't really see how this follows your argument that the BBC-specific build of RealPlayer is a 'precedent' of a large broadcaster 'forcing' a commercial company use offer specific codecs.
