BBC Gets more shows for upcoming iPlayer

by

BBC is planing to jump onto the TV over the Net bandwagon with their iPlayer pretty soon.
Sadly for US dwellers, like myself, looks like the iPlayer will initially only be available in the UK. BBC does have some excellent programming that’s worth watching, IMHO.

The good news is that some shows can be downloaded and stored for up to 30 days, in addition to iPlayer’s Live streaming features. I presume this will let you catch up on your shows while flying, for example. I also hope that downloaded shows will offer premium quality, since player is no longer constrained to just live streaming, but this remains to be seen.

Here’s the complete news announcement from BBC.

Oh, and make sure to check out this excellent WebTV offerings review from major players, linked from that article.
