Personally, I own a 2014 WDTV Media Player and ABC iView is working fine now. Australia,QLD

 

Why they make it sound for all WDTV devices ? … i don’t know

Why havent they released a firmware update to fix it on the Live Streaming ? … i don’t know (maybe it will be June 2015 … which is still a long time)

 

 

Is there in fact, an older firmware release where the WD TV Live does still support ABC iView or was it something the ABC changed (I heard security or streaming protocols) which affected both models  and with WD choosing to only provide a fiw for their newest model.
