> However, what really bugs me are the time restrictions and removal of programmes when as a TV license payer (which is how the BBC is funded), I've already paid towards the production of those programmes. Couldn't agree more and would represent a real monetisation opportunity for the BBC even within the UK, if they are even legally allowed to do so. How much would you pay per month for access to the BBC archives? I would pay quite a bit. It doesn't even have to be streaming. Let's say you put in a ticket one day requesting that Oppenheimer show and a few days or weeks later, you get a temporary download link sent to you by email.
