I have a damn bone to pick

Just now I read that the BBC has signed a contract that says, starting July 2014, Foxtel will have first dibs on BBC television shows.

If you ask me (and even if you didn't I'll tell you anyway) it a f*cking disgrace.

Even though ABC keeps their stake on Doctor Who and a couple of other programs; the great big pay-tv company gets the lion's share of BBC creations. But less than a third of Australians have pay-tv in their homes! The BBC are effectively excluding 60% of potential viewers!

Basically the whole thing makes me very bloody angry and I don't want to rant on you guys so I'll leave it there. Thank you for your attention.
