BBC to Trial Worldwide Multicast Streaming?
An anonymous reader writes "There are tantalizing hints, via The Inquirer, and other tech news sites, that the BBC may extend its multicast streaming services to non-UK citizens, for material where rights allows. There's details about how ISPs may peer to join the multicast trial network on an official BBC page." We previously covered the BBC's multicast streaming of the Olympics, unfortunately not available in the U.S.
Isn't multicast not allowed through most of the internet? Why not use akamai like everyone else?

It's a bit suprising how badly EastEnders does in the US though, considering it's the highest rated show on BBC One.
I think its more suprising how well it does in the UK considering its such a shitty soap. hollyoaks is better, but still not worth the 30 mins of my day it would take to watch it
TIAEAE!
