I don't understand all these people complaining about iplayer on Linux, I have LINUX on my ASUS Eee PC and iPlayer works just fine with no add on software, it also works fine on Mac.

I guess what you are moaning about is that you can only stream BBC content on Linux and not download, BUT you can only stream on a Wii also.

Not really sure what you are complaining about, I watch iPlayer under linux almost everyday, and have done for months since they moved to flash. The only thing you can't do is download the programs on to your hdd, but I hardly see that as crippling. The wii version also does not allow that.
The linux version at least allows full screen - which the wii version doesn't.

Linux users can't make their own BBC player because doing so would involve cracking the DRM which is illegal. Please refrain from commenting on things you clearly have no understanding of.

Linux users can make up their own bbc player, is there a linux one already?

Look at all the good things we have, please don't whinge so much.

So the license payer who owns an xbox is presumably ok with the fact that they are paying for a service that can only be watched if they go out and buy another console they have no interest in using for anything else?

Why is there a Wii version yet the BBC still ignores Linux users?
