BBC will keep episodes online longer

Actually I did say iPlayer use is limited to those connecting from the UK in the last sentence. Because I was certainly bummed when I couldn't watch those shows and I knew you guys would be too. And, I knew if I mentioned it, someone might figure out a way we could all get in.

Yeah I would be up for paying for the Iplayer here in the US. Can't really find any high speed proxy providers in the UK..
