It seems that the PBS guards its programs diligently–not a good publicity!
Why don’t you use a format that the iPad supports?
Very disappointed. You are leaving 1000’s of viewers disenfranchised.
Hi Philip,
Our internet video does indeed work on iOS platforms if you download and install the free PBS “app” for your iPad or any other iOS device. Once installed, you should have access to all of the PBS programming currently available on pbs.org.
Here’s the link for the iPad app: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pbs-for-ipad/id398349296?mt=8

Let us know how the watching goes! Thanks for your question.
Best,

So I had the Live from Vienna Performance scheduled to record but due to conflicts I guess I totally missed it. Now I am trying to at least watch part of the video and not available. Very Unhappy, and no word about whether a DVD will be available. And like someone else said it would be great if Julie Andrews was included on the DVD…. I guess I will try getting the PBS “app” on my IPad but you probably still will not have the Live from Vienna Performance available…
I used to watch this program every year and this year decided not to do it anymore after reading the New York magazine article on their Nazi past.
