I wasn't disagreeing with you, PB, but I was saying that it was more likely to be the rights issues.

Do you know if Netflix costs more in the US? They have loads of content on there. I think the sheer reach of Netflix means that a financial model that will produce very small profits on some expensive but popular programmes actually works very successfully.
