One thing I read is that unless you use BT's DNS their IP TV service will
count as part of your internet usage. (I don't know networking enough to
know if that's possible or true.) Well, my internet service is "unlimited"
in theory, but of course with a 'fair usage' clause...
Anyway I've changed it on my PC to OpenDNS and my wife's to GoogleDNS so
we'll see how it goes...
Cheers
