Great for catching up on things you have missed on the BBC even if if has just finished on the TV, it appears in iplayer really quickly. Have mainly used it for programmes I have missed but occasionally have listened to odd radio show I have missed. Yes you do know have to register with an account but it is still not tied in with your TV licence.
Head and shoulders above any other tv apps. Choose from watching live, or from the beginning or catch up. Most programmes broadcast on BBC are available, rather than the small handful offered by other apps, and can be watch for at least 30 days (0 more)
Hard to watch from abroad as they can spot a proxy a mile off (0 more)
