BBC iPlayer Console Use Rockets
January 15th, 2010

The BBC has announced a surge in iPlayer console use over the past few months.
“The final two weeks of December 2009 saw a huge increase for people accessing BBC programmes through their games console,” the BBC said in a press release as the on-demand service broke 100 million requests for programmes in a month for the first time. “One in eight of all TV requests are now coming from either a Nintendo Wii or Sony PS3 console, which is an increase of 74% since November 2009.”
