> When I lived outside of the UK I would have paid a subscription fee equal to the licence fee to gain access to iPlayer. It's worth paying for! But there's no way to give them money for services other than be a licence payer within the UK. This drove me nuts! There were a bunch of great series I was into that were simply not available in US even if I purchased a premium cable subscription to BBC America. Another show (programme?) I really enjoyed was Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares. The UK version was much better than the over the top version we got on FOX in the US. I ended up paying for a cheap VPC in the UK that I would SSH into and use it as a SOCKS proxy so I can watch the shows I wanted. I would have gladly given BBC/Channel 4 money if I could.
