It worked fine when they had Real stream although Ogg/Theora would have been
ideal (and cheaper).
I told you so last year. Spike refused to believe they would change this
because of their charters and commitment. One year later we are standing in a
stinking puddle of mud. We call the BBC a case of "corruption" (which it is),
but no-one seems to be listening. The head of the FSF, who is a Brit, has
called it corruption repeatedly and there is still no public retraction.
The world does crime (just watch voting on OOXML), everyone can see that crime
and protest, but the world goes by without appropriate action. The consumer is
being robbed in daylight.
