ABC wouldn't be able to do this if they were not a public broadcaster. Advertisers would be furious.


Couldn't they just ran the adverts in the stream?

Both ITV 1/2/3/4 (UK advert supported channels) and Channel 4 (public remit but supported by adverts) advertise before, during and after the stream. I don't know if they are regulated but the frequency and length of adverts it seem about the same as the broadcast.


This is why I'm glad of the ABC. Advertisers can go to hell!
