Or that the makers of said "consumer equipment" fail to keep up having been
given opportunities to be informed/involved. The BBC don't make or sell
smart TVs, etc. They *have* had discussions, etc, with makers in advance
about iplayer changes. If the BBC had never changed until all the makers of
'smart' (sic) TVs, 'net' radios, etc, did we'd probably still be stuck with
low-rate WMA and Flash.

But once again, you're using this list for purposes different to why it is
provided.
