Changed my opinion on live feed...

[TomRocksUrSocks]

I've actually decided to support live feed, but only because of the housemate tasks. With live feed you can see them doing the tasks which is good, however if BB10 didn't have this twist then I wouldn't watch it.

Agree/Disagree?

i agree we are missing the housemates reaction to these tasks, the vids on ch4 are not the same and they seem to be really slow updating...there were no updates from 6pm last night till about mid-day today....so i take it nothing at all happened during that time?????

[Harry!]

Thats why I love LF, See the tasks unedited. BB10 looks boring from the start without LF.

They wanted us to watch BBLB, the highlights and streaming. Do agree on the tasks front though

Live feed helps the viewer see the bigger picture, but that is the old big brother as today viewers are in the dark and the whole point of the show has been thrown out of the window, of course down to Channel 4 financial problem over the past few years.

Still we do have the C4 BB web site for info and late night live feed, better than a kick in the teeth.

CH4 web site is what it's all about, they want people to get all their information from there where you have to sit through the adverts before getting to clip.

They have counters on the site so they can justify removing the live feed because we all prefer their clips..... apparently, every hit means money to channel 4.

The viewing figures for last night were something like 2.8 million.......not looking good, but they wont care as long as people keep visiting their site.:laugh:

[Kore]

they need live feed, when i first realised there was a problem i thought there was a problem with my sky cos the red button werent showing up :bored:

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

I totally agree, BB is just not the same without LF:mad:

[Annie]

They need live feed. Fact.

True, but most people cant or dont want to stay up all night. If they cared about the fans they would have made sure there was day time viewing as well.

[yasene]

if they can only "afford" to do LF for a certain length of time in 24hrs why not split it....4 hrs in the afternoon and say 12 till 4am when there is a good chance of housemates being awake still so something to watch for those of us who are somewhat insomniac......how many people can stay awake all night...for whatever reason.....to watch the LF.
I for 1 will not use the CH4 website and put up with the advertising which CH4 are making so much money from!

Am i wrong in thinking that the whole idea of Big Brother was for viewers to watch the housemates live on the internet?

In 2001 the viewers had more choice, multi screen n all.. 2009 and it's the flippin dark ages.

I never watched livefeed.
Most of the time you watched like a random camera or piece of furniture if they were talking about something which we couldn't see :|
