TO be fair to the BBC, they still own the rights to the broadcasts. I know they may have lost the originals etc, but the individual does not own the rights either. Yes, I agree that they will sell the end products and prevent others from using where and when they can. But to be fair its their right to do so. The BBC seem to forget that without people like Bob Monkhouse and the avid collectors (like the current group) are part of the millions that support the BBC in many ways.

It could be argued that we as a public own the rights to all BBC broadcasts and should be able to do with what we wish. We did HAVE to pay the licence fees without exception and threats of prosecution if we didnt.

You will give your copies to The BBC they will take your content, process it and package it for broadcast/iPlayer etc.

This content WILL then become a commodity for sale by BBC Worldwide Enterprises Ltd.who WILL seek to protect THEIR copyright by stopping those that freely share it via P2P/file sharing etc.

Amnesties are periods of time when penalties are withheld - amnesties come to an end. (But the BBC will have your details)
