BBC mulls dropping Flash as iPlayer meets iPhone

iPlayer on BT Vision

"The next platform iPlayer will be available on is Virgin Media set-top boxes at the end of March, however."

BT Vision has approx 70-80 BBC shows from the last 7 days available Free of charge at any one time.

I'm considering picketing the BBC until they make it available on my RISC PC and my 3rd Generation ipod - why should early ipod buyers be discriminated against by the Beeb simply because the machine doesn't play video.

BT Vision misses customer targets (by a shedload)

Excellent Product

I've had BT Vision for a few months now and I'm very impressed with the Vision Box and the user interface.

I've subscribed to the £6 a month TV on demand pack which I'm happy with - probably watch 5/6 hours of on demand stuff a week, the choice is good and seems to be expanding.

The £4 a month Sports pack is good value for the delayed footy, plus classic matches and a selection from earlier in the season.

Once you sign up for Vision all support for Broadband and Vision should go via the Newcastle call centre and my experience of them has been very good. I suspect that they're having trouble coping with the demand if they've gone from 3,000 subscribers a week a few months back to 6,000 now.
