The BBC Is Launching Its Own Streaming Service

The platform, which as of now has no name (or at least it hasn’t been made fully clear), is set to be one focused around new music discovery, which is something that the BBC has always been known for. While traditional radio in America often relies pretty heavily on playing just the hits, the same cannot be said about stations across the pond. There, acts break all the time, singles rise and fall much faster, and championing new music is taken very seriously. - Hugh McIntyre, Forbes [via/web:http://streaming-tv.us]
