    I’d post the iView link if I could but a) you cannot share episodes, just the link to the program and b) you’ll be prompted for a login which would be fine if it opened the iView app where I’m logged in but on mobile it opens iView links in a browser which I’m not logged into on my phone.

      Honestly iView is just a worse UX than YouTube anyway.

      I doubt it matters overmuch which platform you watch it on. If anything, YouTube doesn’t cost the ABC any bandwidth, and they still get things like viewership numbers.

        iView used to be so much better. Logins were probably a masterstroke by whichever group pushed for them.

      It’s highly variable. They can do solid investigative journalism or shallow sensationalism. I used to think highly of them until I saw an episode on a topic that I was quite well informed on.
