Is this why they spent *so* much on iPlayer?
More than £30,000,000 on a re-hash of Microsoft proprietary software to provide a single-platform solution which doesn't even work properly on Windows XP...
The BBC still has superb engineers, but they appear to be handcuffed by political appointments with a unexplainable crush on Microsoft.
Great to see licence payers money spent in this way.
Congratulation to the BBC's Director General - nice work...
