    Hi I was a regular user of the Channel 4 On Demand service whereby you could basically watch all of the Channel 4 shows online by installing the programme on your computer- it was brilliant.

    They recently launched an ad campaign explaining that they would be ceasing this service, but all the shows would still be available to view on the channel 4 website.

    So I went to watch something today only to realise that viewers in Ireland are no longer allowed to access the shows. I'm really annoyed :mad:

    They say it's something to do with rights agreements but how come we could watch them all along? I've sent an email of complaint to channel 4 so if anyone else feels the same way please do the same.

    If they get enough they MAY do something about it :cool:

    Why would Channel 4 care? They are a UK service and it is obviously a rights issue if they have blocked it.

    Yeah I am really pissed about them shutting down 4oD as I used it a lot and it was great. I just went on it a few minutes ago to re-watch the Inbetweeners and was told it had shut down:mad:. Hopefully they will do something about it though...
