BBC Creative Archive launches, without DRM

The BBC Creative Archive, a project to clear and distribute all of the material in the BBC's vaults, has offcically launched — DRM-free, too!

Will the Creative Archive use DRM?

The Creative Archive will not be using DRM around the content. The BBC's pilot site will be using a technology called GEOIP filtering to ensure that content sourced directly from the BBC will only be available to UK citizens.

Will I be able to get old Dr Who episodes?

Sadly you will not be able to get old Dr Who episodes in the early days of the Creative Archive. However, it is hoped that the BBC will in time be able to expand its contribution to the Creative Archive to include programmes from all genres.
