A bit off topic, but when accessing the iPlayer, a notice comes up that from 10 March, I shall have to invest in some electronic gizmo in order for my already smart telly to receive programmes for which I have just paid the licence and which previously were free.
The BBC output is becoming of increasing irrelevance to my watching preferences and in consequence, I am now tuning in only infrequently to Auntie Wireless for Choral Evensong on Wednesdays and even less frequently to their TV output. Evidently, the broadcaster has adopted some technology that, most inconveniently, requires the adoption of some element not in general use if one is to continue receiving iPlayer programming. This is of no great inconvenience to me, but Mrs Trousers is going to find it a monstrous irritation. When Momma ain't happy, nobody ain't happy.
Is there any way around this nonsense, and what's it all about anyway?
