ABC iView

What an awesome service, makes me glad I have a PC media centre hooked up to my TV!
But surely this service can be used to overcome the issue we had earlier with SANFL / WAFL / VFL coverage being stripped from ABC2! Maybe this is where we should now direct our protests...

Just had a look and very good indeed...

Watched a bit of the news and weather (NSW) and excellent quality....

Sounds similar to this...and they do use it show soccer and other sports...you can download shows and they'll last for 30 days. Probably wouldn't be available to overseas supporters (the BBC's isn't) but would be the perfect solution for you guys.

But how can the SANFL get a gig on that when Sunday Arts: Post-Modernism is being called for by the masses...

Thanks for the tip zipper, I'll be using this for sure (not being sarcastic with that part, there are some good shows there).
