+1. Using the 4 "watch online" is just a horrible experience whereas connecting my laptop to my (standard-def) telly and streaming in "high quality" mode takes seconds and is very very close to broadcast-quality (in my subjective and myopic eyes). I'm not in on Saturdays so I've been enjoying watching "Merlin" in exactly this way for the last few weeks now. And of course it remembers where you were if you need to stop and start again later. I love iPlayer. For me it's possibly worth the license fee on its own, and would definitely be that level of value if the radio shows were available for non-time-limited download!
