Well done Auntie October 9, 2007

Two big thumbs up for the Auntie Beeb from me today (the second follows in the next post) at a time when things aren’t going to well for her. I’m sure these plaudits will make all the difference to her.

The first is overdue.  I was one of the lucky ones to get chosen to try out BBC iPlayer several weeks ago, after I was out on a Thursday night, and missed two programmes that are appointment viewing for me (Saxondale and Still Game).

It totally rocks.

The downloads, unsurprisingly, are none to fast – I think each programme took about 20 minutes. The picture and sound quality were superb.  This is going to change the nature of appointment viewing for me. More of this please.
