Ok, but if it does radio, then will it work with the BBC's listen again links? Also, if I want to listen to a streaming premier league footy game from a club's website, will I be able too? -

Hi Jackie. I'm afraid you are correct, it only does radio stations at the moment.

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 obviouslyinvestigated the program enough, but I was desperate to get in the stationson 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 beenresearching - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Holdstock" <peterholdstock@xxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, January 29, 2011 10:06 AMSubject: [access-uk] Re: BBC iPlayer iPhone app imminent | News | TechRadarUKBaring 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'twork.Let's hope I'm wrong though. I did contact them re inaccessibility of the news app but received no response.

However, the BBC forced them to be removed. Incidentally, I've had to manually scrape the BBC's website and bodge a link together to help a blind friend get Radio 5 and 5 live podcasts, because 3 months after being notified, they STILL haven't fixed their broken podcasts lists. It took me 20 minutes. Amazing, isn't it? How many £billion do they get? And how much is squandered on things like the already technically obsolete DAB system? Grrrr. Rant over!

This is according to PaidContent who have been given the nod by an unnamed source that Apple users will soon be able to watch the iPlayer on their portable devices without having to go through the laborious task of viewing content through a web browser. It's been a long time coming for the BBC iPlayer app to enter the App Store. Announced way back in February 2010, the app was meant to be in place before 2010 was out but never actually made it to market. This was because the BBC Trust had to look into whether the iPlayer app, alongside a dedicated news and sports app, were the right thing for the BBC to release. It turns out apps were part of the company's raison d'etre, which promptly brought on the release of the hugely successful BBC News app and gave the greenlight for the iPlayer on the App Store. No Android Unfortunately there is still no word as to whether Google Android will get an official iPlayer app. Considering Erik Huggers is departing at the end of February to snuggle up next to Will.i.am at Intel, and massive job cuts have been announced for the web arm of the BBC, it's unlikely we will see an Android version of the iPlayer anytime soon.
