Earlier this month, the makers of Azureus
announced that they'd be creating a new service that was part HD Youtube and part iTunes video store. The beta service, dubbed
Zudeo, has Azureus 3.0 at its core, which users have picked on for being a little
clunky and bloated. Hoping to boost the project's legitimacy, it looks like the BBC will be offering
"hundreds of episodes" worth of TV shows via the service, though no pricing plan has been announced. There's also been no mention of what kind of DRM will be used.
