So where are you posts calling out all the blatant lies I had to wade through?

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.
whoops

edit: and im sure a couple of you are genuine BBC supporters being pulled along by the quite obvious rubbish some have spouted on here about neutral platforms and costs and trials.

be aware that those, especially those who double down against people like me, might actually be full of absolute tosh. luckily it didnt take long for the BBC to semi fix its mistake and show those in this thread who tried so hard to make the BBC look stupid that they are full of it.

shame, buts the times, special kiss to my two really unpleasant friends who attacked me for wanting the BBC to make sensible decisions
