Looks interesting Glenn.

Did see this in his feedback:

"you get what you pay for lot of stations dont work and those that do have news"

You can get the same sort of software for free from i-net.
I've had it in the past and as Spirit said: lot of stations don't work and those that do, have news or football from Thailand :D

Glen, check there:
http://jlc-software.com
You can either watch in browser online or download the software.

Not sure if it still works all right but may be worth a try.

Just check the software and it does work!
I.E. ITV1 is almost live with only few seconds delay.

Yes Glen, the software downloads from that site.
I may get some sort of recording software and record Sunday's F1 night race at Singapore.

freetube works, just stick freetube in google.

or you can get a usb arial and get freeview channels on you lap top. but you must have USB2 port usb1.1 is too slow.

arials cost about £25.

however reception can be a problem with the usb arials.

I know freetube and it works OK.
But no ITV1 there so can't watch F1 on weekend

what time is the Grand prix on in the UK.

Personally i don't see the point in making them race at night, if you want to see it live you get up early, and it makes it a bit more special.
