BBC iPlayer To Introduce HD Content This Month

Our Comments 

You can already watch BBC content in high quality on the iPlayer and the average size for such a programme is surprisingly low. 60 minutes worth of programme takes around 300MB which equates to a bit rate of 667kbps which is more than adequate. The iPlayer has been one of the most popular technological achievements of the past few years and it is nice to see that the BBC is bringing it to the next level.
