I think the chances of the BBC authorising a third-party iPlayer application such as this are zero. There is nothing in it for them. I would not even wish to co-operate with the BBC, or infact any other hopelessly bureaucratic organisation where the suits would insist on intervening every 2 fecking minutes.

Presenting a logical argument to these type of characters is futile.

The plan is to initially provide playback/download of pre-recorded shows, and take it from there. PVR features will be added later. I have no intention of going within a million miles of any Flash crap.

The application is called BeBeCe and I do not have any plans to extend it beyond BBC content.
