It could be because the News stream gets a lot of views on Budget day?

As PMQs is on now, go look at the BBC News version of the Parliament feed and then compare it with BBC Parliament's quality: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/playlive/bbc_parliament/ N24: 368kbps (48kbps). BBC Parl: 500kbps. Don't understand the drop, if it was due to a costsaving drive surely it'd be adjust to be about 300kbps or below. (Difference is currently ~132kbps) _____ From: owner-backst...@lists.bbc.co.uk [mailto:owner-backst...@lists.bbc.co.uk] On Behalf Of Brian Butterworth Sent: 24 March 2010 11:18 To: backstage@lists.bbc.co.uk Subject: Re: [backstage] BBC News online stream quality drop?
