Instead of wasting resources on creating yet another music service, they could have worked with existing music services to expand/improve their services (such as Napster, Amazon, etc), and cut their customers a deal if they wanted the service as an incentive to be a BT customer. I think they should be spending more of their resources upgrading the dire UK telecoms infrastructure. I'm not bitter at all with my paltry 1.3Mbps connection...

I thought the government was trying to save money due to the financial mess that labour's period in power left us. We're making cuts all over the place to save money, yet here we are subsidising computers and Internet connections for those who can't afford it, and might not need it, all so we can claim some silly title. I hope these people will be properly educated in how to use computers, or these potential 9.2 million users are going to be easy prey for scammers, viruses, malware, etc.
