BBC iPlayer Postponed Indefinitely On Xbox 360

The Xbox 360 is the only current generation console not to feature the BBC iPlayer, a hugely popular web-based service in the United Kingdom, with both the Nintendo Wii and PlayStation 3 having full access to the service.

Acording to the Telegraph, the BBC are unhappy with Microsoft's desire to make it only accessible to Gold Subscribers - a move which of course goes against the BBC's nature as it's a public service.

It means that the BBC iPlayer will not appear on the Xbox 360 any time soon, unless either side concedes its stance in the near future.
