http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/stories/2008/10_october/2 0/iplayer.shtml "The BBC and Sky have announced that BBC iPlayer can now be accessed via Sky Player, Sky's online TV service." what's disingenuous about that? Sky could just as easily have refused to link to the iPlayer: the fact that they didn't is worth a press release, IMO. - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
