Well I can't claim when the issue started but as far as I'm concerned it is
either the version that's blocking the streams or it's their web site. It
was suggested that they cut back on the number of streams to save band
width but I doubt that since this is a multi billion dollar company. 
The person who was Rude to you Pete didn't have a clue so don't worry.
There's always a joker in every deck.
