      BBC iplayer without a doubt as you don't need to install anything to use it, and everybody gets access to the same stuff.

      After numerous attempts to register for the sky player last night and getting nowhere, I tried the bbci player on NR's advice - faultless, and as you dont have to install anything I dont think I'll be trying the sky one again.

      BBC iplayer, it's just so easy to use.

      Re: Sky Player or BBC iPlayer

      I think BBC iPlayer is more better and we are able to use this on the PC and Laptop where Skyplayer you can only use this on one computer I think Sky Player is going to be wallop on this one.
      Sorry to be a misery

      Cheers

      You can also watch the ITV channels on their one which you can't do on the iplayer which is always an added bonus.
