spinynorman Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 The BBC iPlayer has been a hot topic on everyone's lips. It's late, doesn't work very well yet, presents some ISPs with a big economic problems, and is limited to Windows XP users running Internet Explorer. That last point has proven particularly sticky for the Beeb's spinners in the last few weeks, but in reality reveals as much about Microsoft's plans for DRM as it does about any supposed "corruption" of the BBC by some Gates-backed Sith. More baseless speculation from The Register. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reiver_Fluffi Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 The whole iPlayer is starting to become a bit of a joke, yet another waste of licence payers money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trgy Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 (edited) And it works only in UK for now, who cares anyway Edited February 29, 2008 by Trgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 Technically, you could find a proxy in the UK and use this to view it ;) At least in theory, depends if the BBC don't like it routing via proxies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trgy Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 I did try to do that, proxy was listed as in UK but actually when I checked it was in Amsterdam. I didn't try a different one . Is there any chance that such proxies exploit user data? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
