  1. Re:Windows Only on BBC Download Plans Approved · · Score: 5, Informative
    The original plans for the iPlayer were based on Windows Media. But as part of the announcement today, the Trust has said the service will have to cater for all platforms. From the press release:

    Platform-agnostic approach: As proposed, the TV catch-up service on the internet relies on Microsoft technology for the digital rights management (DRM) framework. The Trust will require the BBC Executive to adopt a platform-agnostic approach within a reasonable timeframe. This requires the BBC to develop an alternative DRM framework to enable users of other technology, for example, Apple and Linux, to access the on-demand services.

    I've got two of them...

    The recall instructions above seem to be for America only. I'm in the UK and am given these instructions instead.

    The difference seems to be that I'm only supposed to disconnect the battery, not remove it, and the whole unit, battery and all, gets swapped.
