All Channel 4 (UK) Programming Coming to YouTube at DVinfo.net

More info on the link. Like the BBCi Player, content will only be viewable by those of us who live in the UK. A sign of things to come I think as TV channels realise that people are spending more and more time in front of computers watching video content - and less in front of TVs!

YouTube to broadcast Channel 4 shows ? The Register

It's not that hard for none U.K. residents to view the BBCi player, just takes a bit of work. I would gladly pay the equivalent BBC TV license fee to have all of the BBC programming on my FIOS system, but the powers that be will only give us BBC News and BBC America, which just shows the same 8-9 shows all day.

America wants and needs all of the BBC/ITV channels over here, American TV sucks.

Yeah, I've spent a heck of a lot of time in America in the last 10 years so I know what you're talking about! A bit more of an update on this link - looks like BBC iPlayer won't now get linked to the other UK channels on-line offerings...

BBC told it cannot link iPlayer to ITV and Channel 4 - Times Online
