Voiceover announcements on iTunes TV shows!

I've recently bought and downloaded the BBC TV series Ashes to Ashes, and was a little surprised when at the end of one of the episodes a voiceover announcer came on to detail what was coming up next on BBC1!

Come on BBC - this is just tight - I paid a premium for the privilege of watching this, the least you could do is put a little bit of effort into supplying a properly edited version.

Well, Fox adds full blown "house ad" commercials before the credits on their produced content. It's ridiculous.

Well I can understand the networks wanting to promote themselves and put trailers in, even though it must be a bit annoying when you've paid for the content. I still think it's really strange that the BBC would give the broadcast version including on-air comments to iTunes - it's like having something video-taped from back in the day!

Well, do yourself a favour and don't buy The Inbetweeners, shocking picture quality and even announces the end of part one half way through and then carries straight on with 'part 2'.
