Smurfs I've never heard of BBC iPlayer, but it seems like a lot of people are saying good things about it so I guess I will check it out once the app is released.


I hadn't heard of it until now either. From what others are saying and what I read, it seems to be similar to Netflix. May be something to check out at least once.


Im guessing you're not from the uk? BBC is pretty much a uk thing. It is to catch up on all of the programs that have been aired on the BBC tv channels :)

Doesn't interest me really. Don't think I'll be using this.

I'll be sure to check this out when it's released to see what all the fuss is about. I have only heard of BBC radio.
