[QUOTE="w hole, post: 22465, member: 175048"] Hello skyoutUK Well - It's a bit compliated but : The big USA Corps. want to protect the investement they have made in the product they deliver, and they are very restrictive in how they go about it. They control - sometimes behind the scenes - the way that programmes are released. If you look at the output from the the total availalable spectrum which is broadcast in 'english' you will find that it is restricted to what and how they have agreed it should be. There are few exceptions, even the proposed changes in BBC ouput only just circumvent the American Boycot Even So it will be a wonderful day for European Satellite Reception when and if they [the BBC] go ahead despite the pressures from across the pond. The whole subject of worldwide/regional/country copyright is so frought with artificial barriers So I think it it only right to applaud Greg Dyke for his stand in this, which could in the long run prove to be a significant point in the battle between the rest of the world and the 'Studios' and 'Mr R. M.' This is avery important point in the history of Satellite Communications, and it is to be hoped that Greg D. and the BBC will prevail. If they do not - then ................ Regards to all - and if you have been listening thank you. W. Hole [/QUOTE]
