BBC iPlayer

Uncommon card · No. 90843

BBC iPlayer (stylised as iPLAYER or BBC iPLAYER) is a video on demand service from the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC). The service is available over-the-top on a wide range of devices, including mobile phones and tablets, personal computers and smart televisions. iPlayer services are available in Great Britain, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands with no commercial advertising, as they are funded by the TV Licence, which is required by law to use the service. The terms BBC iPlayer, iPlayer, and BBC Media Player refer to various methods of viewing or listening to the same content. BBC iPlayer launched in 2007. Previously, a separate BBC iPlayer Radio brand was used for radio services but this was replaced with BBC Sounds in 2018. The current logo and rebranding to "iPLAYER" has been in use since 2021. Currently, some programmes can be watched in UHD on iPlayer as part of an ongoing trial, as well as streaming major live events in 4K on iPlayer.
