You'd imagine that I would be Whooping and cheering madly BUT......... in fact this is merely an attention grabbing headline. The truth is Channel 4 have no intention of reinstating live feed [at all] in my opinion.
"Last night the Daily Star confronted Channel 4 over the ratings and the live feed issue. We asked if bosses would now reconsider their decision about the streaming. And they admitted the matter will be looked into again for next year." Full article
So should I abandon hope? Not one bit of it - I hope that the continued pressure from dissatisfied viewers who are expressing themselves clearly - by turning off, not voting, writing emails, voting in polls and discussing all the events in places like the Digital Spy Forum will eventually MAKE C4 bosses see sense.
C4 have made an awful lot of money from BB over the past 9 years, and they need to be reminded that its the fans that make the show successful. If they continue to disregard and disrespect them it will be at their peril.
Channel 4 was hopeful that the Digital Britain report would recommend 'top-slicing' the TV license funding to prop up their activities - but only got a commitment to further negotiations on the issue. I'm guessing that they are now hoping to demonstrate their worthiness to receive this funding - so is letting Channel 4's flagship show sink under a welter of complaints going to serve a useful purpose?
Wake up C4 bosses - it's you that should abandon hope.
