"BBC reveals new logos in modern makeover" https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-58970323
I wonder how much the new logos cost?
Sounds is particularly annoying - it has so many issues on various devices, why not fix them first?

The famous BBC logo has had a makeover after audiences told the corporation its services looked "old-fashioned" and "out of date".
The three blocks incorporating the letters BBC will be slightly wider apart and will feature the corporation's own Reith font.
Named after the BBC's founder, it will replace the current Gill Sans one.
News and Weather will also have new symbols made up of three blocks placed at different angles for each service.
BBC Sounds, iPlayer, BBC Sport and BBC Bitesize will have similar icons in various different colours.
...
Some critics felt the new version wasn't significantly different to the old one and questioned the cost involved.
But the BBC told The Sun earlier this year: "We are using our own font - which we own the intellectual rights to - when we update content or BBC products.
"It would be wrong to suggest the costs of the design of the blocks was significant."
It's understood the precise design costs will not be published as they are commercially confidential.
Many users on Twitter had fun making light of the new logos, with some pointing out an apparent similarity between the new logos and the fictional one in BBC comedy W1A.
