Infinitely better quality than any of the other streaming sites I've ever used.

That I can't answer. Perhaps you should ask Tiscali?

Be* didn't support it originally but 30 minutes after someone asking about it on the Be* forum it was supported and works perfectly for me :)

I've got Be* and it says it's not supported, thought it was odd it said that as I thought you'd got Be* like you said.

its very good quality but i'm not sure of its use.

Its hardly catchup as you are only able to watch whats currently on.

And by the looks of the ISP support required, where are you going to be able to view it, the only reason you would want to use this is if you are on holiday maybe and wanted to watch your favourite programme, or uk tv on the wireless in an airport, but you can't as the isp won't support it.

I like it but I just can't understand the use for it?

So whether you are at uni - you'll have a tv......
on holiday - abroad so the isp won't support it
travelling with work - erm, you stay in a hotel, it will have a tv
away from home - if you have access to a pc then you are likely to have a tv too
or are just too darn lazy to move away from your PC - i have a tv in the same room as the pc or move the laptop into the living room, i'm sure i'm not alone on this

oh and i can't see 15 channels

?

have a tv in uni with you all the time? i doubt that
if you have access to pc then you have access to tv - just an assumption, some people wont
and just because you have a tv in the same room as your pc dont mean everyone else does ;)

If you read carefully, or not that carefully actually, you'll see it's still in Beta. They are going to add more UK channels and European channels with time. They are also going to add a record function, hence "catchup".
 
Is everyone registered as a member on this or just trying the 'Beta'? Do you get any annoying emails from them if you become a member?

i've read the forum now and its a bit more clear.

they had a recording function but had to take the site down as it has channels complaining, but they are trying to bring it back from what i can gather.

Also, while they state you can only watch the channels from your country they also state this

4. We are rolling the service out to other countries, and all viewers living in Eu countries will have unrestricted access to each other's TV programmes under the TV Without Frontiers Directive in due course

and unlike other website that check your ip when ou try and view, this one checks it at registration, so all you have to do is log in from abroad and you should be able to to watch the channels the same which is a bit of a first, i'm not sure they can keep it that way though when the channels find out.

to be able to watch the uk channels abroad would be useful, but thats all really.

Only 8 channels are available at the mo too even though there are 12 listed (they just lied about the 15) as those 4 extra are being tested by certain users.

i'm still not sure about this isp having to make a certain connection to make it work, means you can't rely on it being available wherever you are.

It has a use.

FFS what do you want? A Thai ladyboy to suck you off while watching it?

It's FREE! You can watch live TV in great quality on your PC which will appeal to a lot of people.

Sometimes I think people just like moaning for the sake of nothing better to do.

i'm guessing that as its very new, not all connection points and servers will be aware of it yes so it might be a waiting game maybe?

Also, it relies on having the latest updates so i'd either try FF3 if you aren't (thats what i am browsing it through) or update your flash to the latest version for your browser
