It'll be interesting to see the pricing and if there's a deal on the 'season pass'. I like that they're not shying away from the 'dodgy' old stuff. At least that's the idea. I sure as fcuk wouldn't be expecting too many TOTP episodes though :lol:

Hmm - however this distinction is being slowly blurred by various set top boxes.

The service will be curated by BBC staff and, where an editorial decision is taken within the public service section of the BBC to revoke programming, it will also be taken down from BBC Store and customers refunded

Uh-oh. That’s bothersome. So DRM exists, and I expect some kind of app or iPlayer extension will exist. Hopefully, some entertaining bright spark will work out how to remove such annoyances.

There are definitely some things I'd love to get my hands on, in particular high quality episodes of things like Later and the Glastonbury coverage, but alas there's nothing even remotely similar being mentioned.
