Our living room TV is near on redundant and we tend to use the big iMac in the family room for iplayer, DVD watching and http://tvguide.co.uk/ which I just discovered you can now get a the majority of Freeview channels.

I even sometimes use my iPhone for watching live TV with TVCatchup.com via 3G.

I was part of the Beta for iPlayer pre going Public. I still use it. On PC, Wii, Portable devices and have just started to d/load wmv files – think I’ll dump desktop d/loads as I am using 50% CPU on start up to share using Kservice and while I didn’t mind for a while – I now need the speed back 24/7 for work. Yes – 8-9.30 is sometimes unusable on Wii but I thought that might be due to my proximity to a Busy RAF base. (They are also active a great deal at this time)Cheers @kiltedcomposer
