They’ve changed it where it now plays the theme for a few seconds before and after the bulletin
Oooh, is that part of the new theme?
Yup, nice use of the strings and a tigher bassline. Actual titles remain the same but some nice accompanying bits to follow.

Are you sure that wasn't just Amazon's insertion of stock sounds, or do they actually play the BBC News theme when you check the news updates?

I really feel as if the way the logo is left to stand out than the rest of the graphics sort of annoys me. Maybe remove the logo background and make it stand out without it? I don't know.

The Arabic strap and channel logos visible under the black bar make me think it should be more opaque or it should apply a blur effect to whatever's underneath it (although that might look a bit Windows 7).
The latest BBC World News one-minute update also features Reith and a new strap.

Does look like the Nine style strap may have been the starting point, but then they worried about text fitting in a square so change to a horizontal logo, and then worried about white text being seen so added the translucent background.
It's not great but neither are the current white straps.
