Classic Series Downloads

Following a deal between BBC Worldwide and the P2P company Azureus, fans in the USA can now download several episodes of the classic series. The programmes are available for rent from the Vuze website for a small fee; the first episodes of The Three Doctors and The Talons of Weng-Chiang are available for "free rental". As well as classic Doctor Who episodes, other BBC material such as Red Dwarf and Steven Moffat's Coupling is available.NB: For copyright reasons, these downloads are currently only available in the United States, and because of the digital rights management software with which the files have been encoded, they can be played only on Windows computers running Windows XP or Vista (i.e. not on computers running Macintosh or Linux).
