ROKU Smart TVs and sticks have an app called FoTV which allows streaming and recording of BBC, ITV and Channel 4 and 5 shows, and there is also an Android app (and probably an iPhone app) No shortage of legal (and illegal) ways to get BBC programmes. Most BBC shows eventually end up on other

Not only does the BBC not want to exploit a market that people are currently using for free through the back door, they are wasting their time spending a fortune on a competitor to Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple Siri, Microsoft Cortana, Samsung Bixby and god knows how many more AI

Interestingly the Genome service has an \Explorer option whereby it is supposed to allow you to search the Archives. However I've not yet got it to find anything. When doing a search on Genome itself sometimes there are links to recordings on iPlayer. There are indeed quite a few OTR enthusiasts

Then there are VPN services - free v.v. paid for. If the Beeb offered such then folks would surely pay to watch or listen from overseas. Anther revenue stream it does not been to want to exploit. But I would opine one demand would be for archival recordings audio (sorry 'sounds') and video. Once

While I don't disagree with much of your text, I believe you're wrong about the BBC terms of reference. My understanding is that if you access iPlayer from an Apple device, then that 30-day limit doesn't apply. All get_iplayer does is emulate (or simulate) that Apple environment, thereby avoiding

On my Freeview HD PVR I can record anything the BBC broadcast and keep it as long as I want. And it is a higher resolution and bit rate recording, often with 5.1 sound which iPlayer never provides. If I have to use iPlayer for some reason, I am already putting up with reduced picture and sound

Boy, the hypocrisy here is stunning. The BBC allows time-limited downloads, but does NOT allow downloads without an expiration date. Every single license payer here is violating BBC's terms of service by using GiP to download files that do not expire. Yet heaven forbid someone from outside
