Eating my words once again

I posted recently about the brilliance of the iPlayer and how it had revolutionised my television viewing experience. Well. I take it back. After booting up my laptop today, I opened the iPlayer Download Manager only to find a message suggesting I did not have anything to watch. Except that is a blatant lie, because I have been quite happily downloading things for the past few weeks. I’ve been storing up some episodes of things so I can watch them all together.

The iPlayer makes my iLife slightly iBetter

My inaugural post as a somewhat techie blogger must be about the BBC iPlayer. I have been using it for about a week now and I’ve formed some initial impressions. Firstly, confusion reigned supreme. Back when the iPlayer was announced, I quite obviously checked it out. Having TV accessible via the Internet is something I am keeping a close eye on, and I have strong views about the BBC as well.
