BBC iPlayer set-top box to enter market
BBC is known to adopt new technologies rather easily. The latest from them is that BBC might start rolling in stand-alone iPlayer set-top boxes that allow users to receive streaming TV on demand. Users might not have to depend on computers and PCs and the technology is similar to Apple’s Apple TV device. However, this service is available via Nintendo’s wii and Apple’s iPhone. In spite of these initial speculations, not much is known about BBC’s plans regarding this. However, it is possible that BBC might be engaged in talks with hardware manufacturers and content providers in order to provide competition to BskyB’s Sky+ digital service and offer extra features such as on-demand radio.
