That fails to explain why you aren't allowed to watch in the UK. This private/public thing is weird. It profits, to help fund the BBC. Part of those profits (what, $10 or so?) should go towards not fire-walling the UK from the content their channel produces to fund their channel.
Edit: I know proxies are not for your casual user, but will we ever have acceptance of the fact that fire-walling content is about the easiest thing to get around, and maybe (just maybe) that money could be less wasteful elsewhere?
- lifeisstillgood 11y agoYes just thinking about this: - if you are outside the UK, we can stop you watching Doctor Who for free, and charge you for the DVD version. Ok a bit meh, but I get it. Although if given the chance to comment as a taxpayer I say make it free, and make it clear why the BBC is valued. - but the other way round? Where is the artificial scarcity ?
