BBC To Allow Public To Download Its Library - 25/08/2003 12:23
From the IMDB news stuff:
Wait. There's more stuff on the BBC's web site: BBC plans to open up its archive to the public. Very cool.
BBC Director-General Greg Dyke said Sunday that the public will soon be able to download any of the BBC's radio and TV programs from the Internet as part of a new service, the BBC Creative Archive. Speaking at the Edinburgh TV Festival, Dyke said, "Up until now this huge resource has remained locked up, inaccessible to the public because there hasn't been an effective mechanism for distribution. But the digital revolution and broadband are changing all that. For the first time there is an easy and affordable way of making this treasure trove of BBC content available to all."Does anyone have any more information? It'd be cool to download all of Doctor Who.
