The BBC Integrated Media Player is the new idea from the BBC that allows viewers to watch BBC TV programmes from the past seven days on the internet. The following quote is from bbc.co.uk...

Quote:
iMP is a broadband service the BBC are developing that allows you to use the internet to download and watch programmes from BBC TV and Radio.

Users can also set iMP to download programmes that they'll miss, which are coming up over the next seven days.

It's not available yet but soon holidays, family get-togethers and other distractions getting in between you and your favourite TV and radio programmes could be a thing of the past!


iMP features
iMP is pretty similar to the bbc.co.uk RadioPlayer which allows you to listen to any BBC radio programme from the last seven days.


The Office on iMP
The main difference with iMP is that you'll be able to access TV programmes as well.

Once you have downloaded them, you can watch them as many times as you want for up to seven days after the programmes are shown on TV.


At the moment its a trial for about 5,000 people, but I just wondered what you guys thought about it...
