This, of course, had been announced already, but
I wonder what implications (if any) would that have to GiP
BBC Three downloads; if online becomes the only way to
watch, I suspect the CDN servers will be far more busy
than now, possibly resulting in reduced download speeds.
From the article it is not apparent to me whether a
"Watch Live" BBC Three stream will still be present
or "On-Demand" would become the exclusive avenue for
watching Three offerings...
If BBC Three becomes "iPlayer only", then I would
expect all its entries within the TV.cache to vanish
by then, since those are based on the schedule feeds
(currently) - PVR searches won't work, the "--pid"
method would have to be used for fetching...
Regards,
V.
