The BBC iplayer was launched today, and I just watched tonights episode of Top Gear now. That's right! 'Tomorrows technology...Today!'. It is clearly the future of television. It's not completely innovative, there have been pioneers in Veoh, Youtube & alluc.org. However, the BBCs' iplayer is stable, and streams wirelessly very well, it's free too. 'Making the unmissable, unmissable' is the slogan. I think that is a shit slogan, but the player is good. Yes, you can watch copied versions of programmes online, but the quality varies significantly sometimes. The iplayer is standardised quality, and free too. And that is why it wins, so far....
Eventually all major television stations will follow suit, all except for American channels, because they are unable to loosen their grasp on capitalism. But, that's not my problem. Nooo, Sir. Time to watch Doctor Who now in my dressing gown which my Mom bought me. I never wear a robe, but my Mom is a drunk, and looks for opportunities to be emotional, so i'm tollerating it today. Besides, i'm drunk, and nothing bothers me when i'm drunk. Except for the Queens' Speech "Naff Orf".
