Platform-agnostic approach: As proposed, the TV catch-up service on  
the internet relies on Microsoft technology for the digital rights  
management (DRM) framework. The Trust will require the BBC Executive  
to adopt a platform-agnostic approach within a reasonable timeframe.   
This requires the BBC to develop an alternative DRM framework to  
enable users of other technology, for example, Apple and Linux, to  
access the on-demand services.
