That is completely different from "The pre-recorded programmes would be on demand and the live programmes would be streamed. Obviously, each live stream would start when the live action started". I think they will co-exist, not be mutually exclusive... |

This is exactly why I'm trying to pin down the definition of linear which OB refuses to deliver.
We've not even touched on the Pluto TV contradiction yet. |
Re: The future of television
I said at the time closing BBC3 was a ridiculously stupid decision.
BBC1- General entertainment BBC2- High brow shows BBC3- Teen/twenty year old shows BBC4- High brow shows a little more high brow When trying to save money how on earth did the BBC executives think "oh....lets save BBC4 which pretty much gives the same type of show as BBC2 rather than focus on the younger generation who we need to keep the license fee going" I say that as someone who supports the BBC too. It was beyond thick. Whoever made that decision would appear to have graduated from thickerson university with a degree in thickery. Should have closed BBC4 and merged it with BBC2. Kept BBC3 open. If you'd wanted the young audience you could have just had some classic bbc kids shows between 10am-6pm and got the millenials to watch the shows they watched as kids. Look how well that show from CBBC about the girl who was in the childrens home. |
Re: The future of television
The thing is it didn't really save as much as portrayed as they still had to develop BBC 3 type content for broadcast on BBC 3 and in small portions at random hours on BBC One.
All that changed, unsurprisingly, is that nobody watched it due to a lack of prominence. Going from 7 (Freeview), 106 (cable and Freesat), 115 (Sky) to hidden away at the back of an app is in no way, shape or form comparable. |

Then digital came along and suddenly you had capacity for hundreds of channels. Which has always been my point around linear channels - they are extremely cheap to operate if you own the content anyway. |
Re: The future of television
With 7 (seven) minutes of adverts every 15 minutes, I think it's more about revenue than content :p:

Re: The future of television
This isn't about the future of television but as the Netflix/Streaming Services thread is now closed with people redirected to this thread I guess this is the place to post streaming service news.......
Starzplay are currently offering a deal of 6 months at £1:99 a month and Eurosport are offering a 12 month sub for £19:99. If its inappropriate to share this news here please can a mod tell me where I should share it now the natural home for such news has closed its doors? |

Richard has raised the most pertinent point about DTT - it'd likely to be scaled back, maintaining a baseline, rather than one big switch off. |

You’ve only got to look at Amazon to see how this is likely to work. Yes, it’s just a different method of delivery, but I have never claimed otherwise. But the way we access the content will feel very different from now. |

You can already record IPTV... https://www.simplehelp.net/2019/12/1...n-iptv-stream/ ON your second point, you’re still saying there won’t be a daily schedule of timed programmes running one after another (like we have now), just scheduled live "stuff"? I beg to disagree. |
