BBC Three will not move online until 2016.

a516 is reporting that BBC Three will remain as a regular TV service this year, with any move online now deferred to early 2016.

Well it won't work with my android phone, it's a One Plus One, and Virgin class it as a modified mobile, even though it runs Lollipop. Unable to use Virgin Mobile TV app.

Is this launching today?? Doesn't sound any different than the app we have already as the new services won't be available yet?
