Heya Chapel
Ive just watched it On Demand – the format has changed in that you have to sign up with TVNZ on demand which is no biggie
Definitely, that mob could teach the Chinese a thing or two about geoblocking. Apparently I need to change the residential address on my Apple account to NZ before Apple can even sell me the app!

Good story … except the last few sentences of scaremongering … imported generics can be risky … really?

🙂 (Accu-Chek Mobile & Omron Auto BP Monitor) 🙂Well listening to Chris reduced me to tears. It is so raw, not just the juice he is making.
There is a pathos about this whole thing like he says it is a subculture. Yes this made me very emotional. I think that last little downer bit has to be popped in for the networks ass to be covered, that’s all.
Ariel, BIG huge thanks for this share.
Hazel I had a wee chuckle when I saw that.Now for another train of thought in relation to recent events in NZ and Australia with the TGA stomping its feet and Med Safe requiring more hoops for people to jump through to import medication. I strongly suspect that the same people/organisations that have complained about Fix Hep C to the TGA have also rattled chains here in NZ with Med Safe – what is of particular concern is how Med Safe has changed their stance practically overnight….
There has been a lot of talk from those opposed to generic importation as to the supply of fake medication which brings me to my next question….in my time being involved with the generic movement I haven’t heard of anyone in NZ receiving dodgy meds and I am pretty sure if that was the case we would of certainly heard about it by now.
I have it on good authority that a request to Med safe under The Official Information Act to explain the reason for these changes is on its way – must say its going to make for some interesting reading when it returns.
