BBC’s download plans get backing

TV shows like Doctor Who are expected to be available for download later this year after the BBC Trust gave initial approval to the BBC’s on-demand plans.

Under the proposals, viewers will be able to watch popular programmes online or download them to a home computer up to a week after they are broadcast.

But the Trust imposed tough conditions on classical music, which could stop a repeat of the BBC’s Beethoven podcasts.

Full approval of the on-demand plans will follow a two month consultation.
