Hi Andy I use Tune In all the time. In fact it's on now as I write, but I'm not sure you can get TV on it. If I'm wrong, then I haven't obviously investigated the program enough, but I was desperate to get in the stations on radio I enjoy. I honestly don't think it does TV as well, but someone please tell me I'm wrong?

If so, isn't this a kind of work around for grabbing stuff of the Iplayer? Bear in mind, I've not yet even seen an IPlayer of any flavour so far, but have been researching - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Holdstock" <peterholdstock@xxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, January 29, 2011 10:06 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: BBC iPlayer iPhone app imminent | News | TechRadar UK > Baring in mind that the BBVC news app was useless to voice over users, > I'm guessing the Iplayer app will take a similar form and probably won't work. > Let's hope I'm wrong though.
