Re iView: You can retrofit Chrome's Pepper into Chromium with very little effort; google it. Alternatively you can use wget to first download a list of available programs, then download the ones you want using the secret URLs in the list :-) You end up with MP4 files that you can view over and over again, whenever you like!
