Since everything and anything to do with BBC News in the UK will now have "BBC News" in it, will they start directing people to bbcnews.com instead of bbc.co.uk/news?

What a load of carp (oops, spell check!)
Are we sure the BBC haven't stolen someones "powerpoint" mock from these forums, cut elements out, and made them move?
They really are sore on the eyes
I want a refund of my license. Yet another example of an antiquated monolith wasting money!

I wouldn't think the BBC would want to change any websites from their "proper" URLs in the UK. Having said that, I still don't get why bbc.co.uk/news redirects to news.bbc.co.uk.
I'm sure theres a technical reason but it's always bugged me.

There's a few reasons. One of them being so you *know* you are looking at legitimate news from the BBC, rather than maybe another programme (drama etc) pretending to be reporting a news item, such as the dramatisation of a chemical attack on London

HA
the titles are not very good, I would have preferred elements of the blocky BBC Arabic look, where they've really made the BBC logo look really strong and powerful on screen using 3D elements, instead we get BBC News in a red square
, is the music going to be different for each channel or the same?

Identical music across Nationals, News 24 and World from what I've been told.

What about BBC Worlds ident? will it keep its signature tune? Hope so.
The channel stuff (ids, countdown) will keep World's signature notes/FXs but the news stuff will be identical.
