The BBC plans to launch an on-demand tv service which uses software
that will only be available to Windows users. The BBC should not be
allowed to show commercial bias in this way, or to exclude certain
groups of the population from using its services. The BBC say that
they provide 'services for everyone, free of commercial interests and
political bias'. Locking the new service's users into Microsoft
Windows whilst ignoring those members of society who use other
operating systems should does not fit in with the BBC's ethos and
should not be allowed.

I personally think this would be a very bad idea as they may well
start broadcasting freeview etc in drm files!!
