People use both methods!!!

I suspect people like me use both methods. Flash to preview programs, check things out, news stuff, etc. Downloads for favourite programs that you want to watch more than once, or on the big tv.

I dont know why everyone is moaning about the download version. I prefer to use it to download TV programs on my work PC, to copy to my Archos for later watching.

However it all its worth it as Spanish TV is rubbish.

John, use a product called TOR proxy, and connect using a UK IP address. Simple :)
