I have heard this was a problem for Top Gear. They'd include a music clip like The A Team jingle in a clip because the BBC would have a licence to broadcast that. And when they want to show that episode outside the UK, they need to patch the show to use different music instead that they have a licence to.


House MD has a completely different intro theme outside the US, because they didn't get a worldwide license of Massive Attack's "Teardrop".


Damn. I live in Australia and I had no idea that Teardrop was the actual theme the House MD!


And they wonder why some people prefer torrents. Sometimes to simply get the best version of something!
