We live in a world of logic where the music licencing would be across the board, but the scum in the MPAA and its global equivalents are greedy bastards who demand a cut at every format. It's ridiculous.
I've noticed that one of the shows I can't get on DVD is available in the UK via online streaming, so the broadcast rights for television and internet (provided it's going through a television portal) don't seem affected by the extra licencing grab or the lawyers can't figure out how to spin it yet. Trouble is that it's region locked to the UK.
