BBC's iPlayer launches Christmas Day

Had no problems...

Controversial I’m sure but I have had no problems with both 4OD or iPlayer... in fact, I think they are both pretty good (ok, yes, IF you are using windows). iPlayer (as a player) has been very stable, no conflicts with 4OD either - the website its self has been flaky from time to time - as has 4OD. As for DRM, yeah it truly stinks but if I want a show forever I’ll download it via other means, if I just want to catch up on stuff I’ve missed and don’t want to be sitting in front of the TV they are very useful.

Unfortunately I think it's down to the point that those not on windows will – for now - just have to suck it up and wait (or do a dual boot)… those who don’t want it and just like complaining, continue as you are because I doubt anything will satisfy you completely.
