Hmmm, you know what we need!! Streaming BitTorrent TV.. If BBC can broadcast a good quality signal with good sound at 32KB/s and BitTorrent can go at atleast 150KB/s (for me, ADSL)... Then I don't see a problem with streaming BitTorrent, we could have 1 main person to send the signal out.. And then it could be a domino effect... Hmmm, anyone want to work on this? :) :) :p

wouldn't it work but only up to a limted amount of people something around 30? if they all the broadcast as much as they could out 256kbits then surely that would increase the numbers more just a thought?

They have enough bandwith, trust me. They've wanted to do stuff like this for a while, it was the main thing they Introduced the broadband features for :)

we already pay to watch the channels in the uk so surely our access should be free, maybe those in other coutries should be able to pay a small feee for the content.

We only actually pay the license for BBC, I'm thinking it will be free if you can proove you have a license and such :)

they're working on something based on p2p called iMP (Interactive Media Player), that'll let you download any and all of the BBC programs from the last 8 days.

Cos you'll have to use their player (which by the way uses an open source codec), everything you download will have a timebomb.

      Dead by Daylight, Two Point Museum, and more join Xbox Free Play Days for the weekend by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There is a brand-new Free Play Days offer available to Xbox players, giving them a chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend. Microsoft's latest promotion brings some high-profile titles, including the sports title PGA TOUR 2K25 and the racing sim Assetto Corsa. Almost all the games being offered this time require an Xbox Game Pass subscription, with only one title being available for all players. Starting with the fully free-to-play section, Dead by Daylight is populating it solo. This asymmetric survival horror title should be the most familiar to most gamers, considering its age. The multiplayer four-versus-one asymmetric survival horror game has you assuming the roles of survivors or the killer to see who can come out on top. This Dead by Daylight offer will be available to play until Monday, June 22, giving you an extra day of play compared to the remainder of the Free Play Days titles. Meanwhile, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and Essential members can now try out the well-received tycoon game Two Point Museum, the circuit racing sim Assetto Corsa, as well as 2K's golf sim experience that gives players a career to develop alongside real-world pros and courses. Here are the announced games and the platforms they are available to play on: PGA TOUR 2K25 (Xbox Series X|S) Two Point Museum (Xbox Series X|S) Assetto Corsa (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) Dead by Daylight (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) To easily find the titles on Xbox consoles, first head to the Store, and then in the sidebar, find the Home section. In there, open the Subscriptions tab. All the games from the Free Play Days collection will show up in this section for quick access. Apart from Dead by Daylight's offer, this week's Free Play Days promotions will end on Sunday, June 21, at 11:59 pm PT.
