why if you are going to pump 4 sets of adverts in my face plus sponsorship, and channel idents throughout the “The britains Greatest Codebreaker”, only then for pausing and suspension in streaming meaning, if im not careful, I end of having to rewatch the adverts just because you fail to stream it succesfully to me and I have to restart the stream, not a digital vision turing would be happy with. you dont have the right to throw advertising in my face, if you dont have the server bandwidth to deliver the programme content offered in exchange for the advertising.

Where my mind is wont to probe and rant about
I’ve totally given up on Channel 4. 4OD is beyond a joke. The programmers are obviously dicks but I think the main culprit is Adobe. Flash can’t keep up yet rubbish Microsoft’s Silverlight can stream pretty smoothly. Balls to Flash.
Just had my first experience of 4OD. Fucking hell, what total shit. A 55 minute programme with 16 mins of adverts for stuff I would never fucking want, and I’m middle aged!! Crap. At least if I record it off Freeview I can watch it later and fast forward the ads. I also noticed that the other comments are nearly a year old and 4OD was the same then, so they aren’t reading sites like this, obviously.
4OD is a joke. Total pointless advert fest. It breaks all the time leaving you having watched the adverts but not seeing the show you wanted to watch. Can’t even get onto the forum half the time.
My rating. ZERO stars. Bullshit channel. Hit youtube. Fucking ASSHOLES.
i’m am trying to watch revenge but when i try to skip it it just fucks up
i think my mother said something similar ;)
Superb, couldn’t agree more………..but as my old mother used to say ‘They’re all cunts!”
I’ve just complained to the fucking chimps. It’s cynical. it must bump up the ad revenue, endless buffering, forced to reload and watch the shit ads again… It backfires anyway, I end up hating the products.
BBCi player although not perfect, makes 4od look like a fucking dial up. It’s ridiculous and I’m sure they’re breaching codes of conduct.
Couldn’t agree more. Totally inferior crap. Channel 4 recieve a proportion of license payers money yet vomits advertising at the very people who, year-in-year out are forced into supporting C4 unlike commercial companies who move within a free market. I resolve never to purchase the excrement flung my way each time C4 screw up program streaming. Iplayer makes C4OD look like the crap outfit they really are. Pathetic disorganisation who, after this weeks Homeland catchup farce (11 episodes in and 4OD only streams adverts – how many times must i watch that fat-arsed hag madonna advertising ought I can recall?)
C4od – the more I see the less I want to watch – YOU’RE CRAP!
