Just the thought of this is enought to make you salivate!
Guardian Unlimited | Online | Auntie’s digital revelation: “there is a stash of material that currently does not earn the BBC a penny, and for which it owns exclusive rights. What’s more, it’s been listed in every Royal Charter that it has a requirement to present this material to the world.
Last Sunday, Greg Dyke changed that. He revealed that the BBC is planning to digitise and offer for download, for free, as much of its back catalogue of programmes that it can legally do, from the earliest radio reels to nature documentaries to educational programmes. Anyone will be allowed to re-use, re-edit and mix this material with their own, provided it’s for non-commercial use. “
