I'm a tax paying englishman, so why do i have to use the BBC's media player to play public content?? And this does not even mention if the player will be available for GNU/Linux OS's. The BBC should open up their protocols and allow any software to interface with them. Oh dear, if billybob is involved in this venture it will surely mean some kind of M$ proprietory lock in.
