the finer points of media production don't concern me one bit. perhaps they should, but after years of profiteering (sorry, bog standard price discrimination) via region coding along with the fucking BBC sending spies round to my house who suddenly flash some 'id' and want to conduct a search for non existent TVs I'm afraid I'm sick of the whining.
“If you remove geo-blocking from the BBC, then the BBC is obliged to give away its content to everyone at no charge.” this is total bullshit. the beeb can be funded from general taxation in its function of state propaganda dept or they can charge for their output like the evil Murdoch empire does. I don't give a fuck personally, in the unlikely event of there being something on the idiot box that I want to watch I'll buy the DVD thanks.
must go now, it's time for my injection...
