Google Working With BBC On iPlayer

on 06/02/2009 09:49 PDT

Currently, the relatively successful on-demand service known as iPlayer is available only in the UK, so if these talks are successful, then it would probably explode by a mile as more and more people pick up the software. However, BBC is cautious to note that international rights clearance would be a sizeable obstacle.
