ummm... WTF??!!?? The "only bad news" is that the boneheads at the BBC haven't figured out a system for residents outside the UK to pay a fee to watch the broadcasts; there is a ton of stuff that I'd like to check out. Not to mention Channel 4's "4oD Catch-Up" service...
I'm Sorry, but our Licence Fee of £145 a year just to own a TV pays for this stuff, not i;m sure that if everyone in America was asked to pay $200 a year just for the privelege of owning a TV there would be uproar. And anyway, what about us? We're not able to watch ABC, NBC, or FOX streaming online, shows like Lost, Better Off Ted and others which the big corporations want to keep for themselves are now allowed to be broadcast online over here.
Now lets see.... The Pirate Bay trail may be over, but it's still there...
