Live TV online

Above is a screen grab of ITV's website. You can now watch ITVs 1, 2, 3 and 4 online on a live stream. You can only use this feature through Internet Explorer 5.5 or above as it uses DRM. When I did the screen grab the video image of 'This Morning' didn't save. I cheated and took a screen grab of The Bill on Youtube and then copied it into the player above right to give an approximation of what it looks like. Unlike Youtube which really suffers because of the compression used, ITV's picture is really very sharp. You can also detach the player so that it runs in Windows Media Player on your desktop. Could prove very handy for the rugby.
Its free and you don't have to sign up and register, though you probably have to be in the UK.
