Disabling television mode

How does the September 1 requirement affect get_iplayer TV then? And -
yes - I do have a licence although with all of the junk programmes and
repeats ad nauseum I frequently wonder why.

The Beeb's online 'Store' is still  a lemon - it never worked for me -
and I had to claim a non-delivery refund through Paypal Customer
Support when a file I'd purchased refused to download.

I fully expect to see a rise in torrenting after September.
