    Moll Flanders looked like it came off a shoddy Divx than a broadcast quality movie...

    They have screened some utterly wretched prints - movie4men standard (actually they are getting better prints recently), watching on Softview sure doesn't help mind you.

    Hmm.

    I wonder if they basically just name a film, get the rights to broadcast it then have to source it themselves? Probably easier than sourcing a DVD in rural Connemara... :P

    They probably had to go for the smallest file they could find - given 9.6 kbits per second dialup speed in connemara....
