The future of TV (BBC iPlayer)
Member Name: shopaholicleo
Advantages: Can be used on Macs, excellent selection, complete control Disadvantages: Only viewable for 7 days
BBC iPlayer is invaluable to me as I can catch up on programs I've missed due to work and general University life. Before, you had to wait for a repeat to come on at some ridiculous hour or hope that it had been uploaded to some confusing torrent site. Now you can easily browse the past weeks TV and watch it whenever you want. It's quite easy to find a program, as you can search for it or just look for it by day or channel. Anyone could use it with success, though this means that parental controls need to be set up before younger children use it (I'm not totally sure how successful these controls are, and whether they can be worked around by tech-savvy youngsters). It's also handy when your computer crashes or you have to stop watching something, it will remember the last part you were watching so you don't have to fast forward through the whole program. Summary: The best way to watch tv, other services must catch up
