To what ends though?

The BBC is a socialist "corporation" - you HAVE to pay them BY LAW. Therefore there's no profit increasing who gets thei I-services. If you had to pay, theyd be getting an extra however much per user, but as you're paying anyway, why should they bother. With no financial incentives, they won't do anything.

I think you're missing the bigger picture, the Beeb makes a shed load of cash punting its wares all over the world, like BBC America for instance. While iPlayer is free in the UK, it's only a matter of time before they start charging non-UK IP addresses... The Wii shop makes this easy and with the Wii being the best selling next-gen console at the moment it's an obvious step for both Nintendo and the Beeb...
