I have just finished reading the posts on the C4\bb forums what a joke, loads of people complaining that all they get is an error message, and C4 say, "due to the popularity of previous BB series, it was unable to provide the free streaming video service as in previous years".

Well in previous years it was free and it worked, now you pay for it and doesnt work, it seems that the problem is due to the subscriber encryption being used by "Real Player", that rule me out then cos' I will not use Real Player/Media too much spyware embedded for my liking.

thats what kinda put me off... Realone is terrible software.

If i could have used the old Realplayer 8, or even better, mplayer2, i would be subscribed now.

At least it isn't Quicktime!

Just to say that quicktime is good but only for hi-res videos, infact it's very good for that but not so for streaming or lo-res video.
