Holy poo poo, About Time Vol. 3 seems a lot thicker than the other volumes. I don't have a copy of that one yet but I wonder why that is.

I'd blame Canada Post, generally.

It really irks me that Paul McGann is front and centre on the cover of the first River Song boxset. Yes River is there, but she's off to one side. On the cover of her own series.

Thank you again, The_Doctor! Boy this book is massive. Even though it only covers five years of the show. I mean, Volume 4 also does that and it's not nearly as huge.

Knowing how About Time thoroughly picks at every continuity clash for sheer posterity, it's probably a lot of UNIT Dating pecking.

Yay! I'm glad it got there so "soon", it had a projected delivery date of some time running to late Feb.

I'd really like it if they could use some of Murray Gold's music in the Big Finish audios. Things like the Gallifrey leitmotif and the UNIT/Dalek themes would be nice.

Yeah the BBC is launching its own streaming platform very soon. There's adverts on the Tube for it.

CBS has taken all the Star Trek series off Netflix (aside from in the US, although I'd wager that won't be there too much longer) to put on its own steaming service, along with the new series coming in 2017.

The downside of all this is that with everyone wanting their slice of the streaming pie, the consumer isn't going to be willing to pony up for each individual service, but would rather have it all in one place, which is what made Netflix so popular. They're just going to bring about more piracy and lose money because they'd rather put their content in their own little forts rather than share it around and let everyone access it.
