A request for more coverage of non-Christian religious events, then a raft of complaints about 'unspecified rights holders' preventing programmes being available via the internet. Chris Westcott, Head of New Media, replies with an explanation of the complex world of copyright. There is praise for the redesigned 'On Air' magazine, and a listener takes issue with stereotypes in the soap opera 'Westway'.
