[QUOTE="jimbo, post: 11171, member: 175309"] I understand what you are saying PoloMint but I was talking about the concept of being able to view other BBC regions. Why shouldn't you be able to see BBC Scotland. I don't particularly but there must be a lot of Scots in Engalnd (many here temporarily) who would welcome seeing local news from their region. They are of course denied this by the BBC because it lacks the equipment to do it. As I said ITV regions are available. I know you were joking about Outer Mongolia but it does have a serious element. Ex pats from other countries can, by purchasing a card, see loads of stuff from their countries of birth. E.g. most in Europe. We in England cannot watch a Scottish or Welsh programme. As for Scottish football, BskyB have the rights to show league and internationals from there so it's not the leagues blocking it. No, the truth is that as far as home digital services are concerned (excluding Sky) we are not yet up to speed. The BBC is now making an effort but there's a conflict brewing. There are some who think the organisation should not use licence money to develop digital TV and yet the government is trying to set a date when analogue TV should be switched off. What will happen I wonder...... [/QUOTE]
