I really fail to understand why people are complaining about VAT on
something like this. If there was a naught on the end of the price there
would be something to complain about. Ibrihim made a valid point recently
when he said about Apple and it's inbuilt accessibility. We're paying
nothing for this extra. It's mainstream, the same as Joe Normal off the
street. Way to go I say! Smiles.

no we have to pay the VAT
it states this on the site as it a mainstream product with speech added I

the Iplayer speak.

moved through the program.
