Eurovision


No not the song contest..... but the fact the EU have made a ruling that from 19th December TV transmissions in Europe must be made available throughout the union. This of course should make it illegal for BBC etc to block transmissions outside the UK, but there's appears to be a major loop hole in the fact the "free transmission" to all EU countries does not have to mean "free reception", hence allowing the pay to view channels. How long will it be do you think before the BBC start a pay to view service. This would of course also allow the British government to abolish the compulsory TV license and cut away from the BBC. We shall wait and see, meanwhile there are of course many ways to obtain BBC transmissions via the internet throughout the world, happy watching !
