NICAM stereo - a BBC development which could only be received for nearly FIVE years as a trial in LONDON - and required NEW tv and/or VCR.
The BBC ran HD trials for 18 months before making them available to everybody who purchased new receiving equipment to view in HD. It was a long long time before DTT only viewers got to see HD transmissions.
The BBC ran 3D DTT trials making them available to everybody - who purchased new receiving equipment to view in 3D.
ITV eventuallly caught up with some things - but doesn't really have much interest in technology only money.

Yeah this is where you guys fall down.
That's not what the BBC has been doing for years.
It's crazy to watch, are you playing a game like the other guy or can you really not see the current climate and how the BBC is under attack? Giving ammunition at this time is beyond stupid.
