Earlier there was mention made of a 'cost recovery'.
Cost recovery does not apply to distribution through the DTG.
It would appear to be perverse to apply any cost recovery to a document
distributed to the public over the internet.
Development cost estimate: Twenty four point seven million pounds over
five years (24.7 million).
I suspect cost recovery, of operational and development, costs would
apply to content.
This would appear to be zero for the BBC, as iplayer will have zero
usage cost (the BBC is publicly funded). It may involve advertising for
other free-to-air broadcasters.
The purpose of the cost recovery clause appears to be, to prevent
members from profiting from Canvas content distribution, while avoiding
a loss.
