I'd imagine it's more to do with cost... but you would think if they offered online streaming only at a charge then it would make it viable for them to do

Maybe they just think it's pointless? I mean I used to like watching live feed, but to be fair you never really got to see much, so much of the time the sound was cut & often it would focus on someone or something completely uninteresting. I know a hell of a lot more goes on in the house than is shown, but they do show the "best bits" in the hilights show, but of course they can easily edit it in a way to favour someone with more/less screen time...

If it's pointless then Big Brother is pointless. And as for cutting sound they actually improved on that during the last year they had it. The sound cutting may have been at it's worst in BB7, but that doesn't mean it was always like that, in some series it was definitely quite viewable.

I just think a lot of people just don't understand the purpose of the live stream and how it created a buzz and gave things to talk about. But people who don't understand are also very quick to pointificate about it.
