BBC to broadcast live on the Internet

The BBC yesterday announced its flagship BBC1 channel will be be broadcast live on the internet 'within months', reports Daily Mail.

"It means that, for the first time in the channel's 44-year history, people will not require a television set to watch it. ... Viewers will simply need a computer and internet broadband connections to see every single one of their favourite shows as they are broadcast.

The long awaited move, emulates a similar decision by ITV last summer."
