It's a DRM problem

Sorry, the DRM they use only works on Windows. I'm, a Mac person and this is the reason I cancelled my SW membership.

The only way you're going to get it working on a Mac, as far as I'm aware anyway, is to use Parallels, VMWare or Bootcamp to use Windows. I'm assuming you have an Intel powered Mac?

It's the reason I didn't get membership in the first place.
Bummer is it used to work OK before last season.

Since Hereford I had gone from almost inaudible BBC World Service scores at the end of the day (if lucky) to live commentary and video highlights. Now it's going backward, 'cos I have to rely on text commentary and NSC with no video!

I feel your pain totally. It's the same for Linux users as well. One reason why I cant ditch Windows.

I don't see why this content needs to be protected anyway, it just a sodding footie match. What we gonna do, sell it on F*(king ebay.
