So it would be fair to ask why ITV was able to force BT to agree to this, what differentiates BT from Virgin in terms of being "cable TV"?
Indeed, IIRC there was fast forwarding controls on Sky+ that were never implemented.
But perhaps they recently renewed the carriage agreement, and IP delivered gives them more control as they are also providing watch from start capability and maybe an enhanced app.

some branding discontinuity for existing customers (aside from the name change which they posted everyone a letter to inform them of). My Pro box now shines aqua on its front panel instead of purple, even though it has the BT logo.

Changing the light colour on the STB seems a nice touch.

Argh the thing that gets me is just how rubbish those stickers are. Look at how completely off-centre the logo is! But, I forget whether they intended that to be tongue-in-cheek or not.

I don't think I'll ever understand the logic in thinking EE has more brand value than BT.

To the youth, EE has more brand value than BT, at least presumably because they live in a world where smartphones dominate their livelihoods. I can assume BT, to the youth, feels stuffy and less playful.
