[Klug-general] Re: Mark Shuttleworth interview

[Peter Apps]

I have been reading the various emails on this subject and  have been
amazed at the acrimony and petulance in some of the messages.

There are two question I would like answered. First, as a free public
service channel, should C4, ITV or the BBC exclude 20% of it's audience
because of the make of receiving equipment they have. Does anything in
their charters cover this point?

When the nationalised companies were sold off, great efforts were made
to give rival companies to compete and to destroy monopolies. By tying
their Internet audience to Microsoft products are the TV companies going
against these anti-monopoly principles?

Is there a lawyer out there?
