Re: So what does this really mean
From: RS Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2016 12:31 What about programme web sites? Do I now need a television licence to watch www.bbc.co.uk/news? For example, is today's item on the centenary of the tank a programme the form and content of which are comparable to the form and content of programmes normally included in television programme services? Does that make it an on-demand service provided by the BBC? At one time I had a boss who didn't go out for lunch, but he used to listen to the lunchtime news at his desk.

The Issue is with Perl Modules under Debian Linux Jessie. Sometime between Sunday 2016-09-04 & Sunday 2016-09-11 Debian Linux Jessie Updated which broken get_iplayer under Debian Linux. In all likelihood the update took place Saturday night. The AMD Debian Linux box has been my "go to" box for years. it have used it for get_iplayer for 4 years. There was never an issue like this at anytime in the past. The Raspberry Pi were clean installs in the past week. for now I will use the MacOSX computer until I am able to sort out the Debian Linux boxes. My first thought is to downgrade all Perl Modules on the AMD Debian Linux box. the Intel Box will be kept intact until such time I am able to wipe it clean and retire it. For now it will be a comparison box.

Re: So what does this really mean
From: Jonathan H Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2016 07:52 On the iPlayer site it says (my emphasis) "To watch or record live TV programmes on any channel, *or* to watch or download BBC programmes on iPlayer when you're in the UK, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man". Have you or anyone else asked OFCOM what it means? This article says it does not apply to radio programmes or S4C. http://www.theweek.co.uk/75983/tv-licence-fee-changes-what-you-need-to-know Is that right? Where in the legislation does it say that? As far as I can see a licence is now needed to listen to or download BBC radio programmes using iPlayer (and probably podcasts as well) , but I can't be sure because it is so badly drafted. There is an amendment s368(3) of the Communications Act 2003. http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2016/704/regulation/9/made http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/21/section/368 The difficulty is that there have been a huge number of amendments to s368 which have not yet been incorporated in legislation.gov.uk. They may be in Halsbury's Statutes. I haven't yet checked. They relate to all sorts of things including children's programmes and electronic cigarettes. The amendments relating to Guernsey and Jersey do not help clarity. Without a fully annotated copy of the section including all the amendments which are in force, it is impossible to construe it. I have not heard any suggestion that the change was intended to cover radio programmes. Perhaps we should all write to our MPs to ask what they intended the change to mean. Since writing this I have come across this. http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2009/2979/regulation/2/made I have also seen amendments to it. It may be that a radio programme is outside the definition, "its principal purpose is the provision of programmes the form and content of which are comparable to the form and content of programmes normally included in television programme services".
