comments: "Ten years ago, the Doctor’s journey began anew with Russell T
Davies and “Rose”. The Time Lord continues to evolve and refresh and this
innovative deal with BitTorrent allows us to directly reach a huge number of
consumers and engage with fans on a global and fast-growing digital platform.
Music content has seen tremendous success through BitTorrent Bundles and this
deal is the first of its kind for British TV content."
Matt Mason, Chief Content Officer at BitTorrent adds: "For
over fifty years, Doctor Who has challenged the way we see time, space, and TV
— the way we tell stories. A series like this should be part of a versatile
platform; one capable of reaching and engaging fans around the world.
BitTorrent Bundle is that platform. It’s fantastic that BBC Worldwide is the
media organization forward-thinking enough to make a release like this
possible. This is an exciting way for fans to celebrate ten years of New
Who and we are honoured to welcome the Doctor to BitTorrent."
