I've not heard anything about this, but I imagine it will happen in due course. IIRC much of the BBC streaming video is only available on certain ISPs (although I think that includes most of the big ones now).

That list is all fairly small ISPs (possibly with the exception of JANET with their specialist market). I think they are still trying to keep the numbers down at the moment, because the big ones (BT, AOL, Tiscali, Wanadoo, Telewest) are all missing.
