I'd really like to know why some broadcasters don't adhere to the standards (even though it would be a child's game). Are they actively refusing to, unable to interpret the standard documents, or just flat out dumb?
I don't think it's a law they have to and if that's the case, why should they adhere to them? Maybe they think they have a better way of doing things, or something more suited for the way their systems are set up. Unless it's a law, it's a recommendation and we all know a lot of the time people choose not to follow them.
I wish everyone did follow one set of guidelines just to make what we do easier but if I were a provider I can't honestly say that would be a priority unless we didn't have our own hardware to provide to our customers.
