The original Kangaroo was scaled back (it became Youview) because OFCOM
thought it was anti-competitive. Does Youview even exist any more? I
don't recall ever seeing it in the wild after I did quite a bit of
annoying work to publish programme information to it from the iPlayer
back-end.
It does indeed, it's what you get when you subscribe to BT, TalkTalk,
or PlusNet TV packages
And it's rather spiffy. I do enjoy being able to intuitively scroll back on
the EPG for on-demand, the interface is fairly sensible and the ease of
accessing multiple providers' programmes with only limited commercial
interruption is exactly how it should be.
Tangentially related - I read recently that BT Vision's going unicast for
their IP streams soon, ditching multicast :(
