I did that earlier before Hutch removed it in case of legal issues.

It works well and will stay on my phone as a good back up to the slingplayer.

Would be good if more channels appeared though

Re: tv on your iphone
They reckon it's legit - the site has been operating as a PC browser-based service for a year already. It is acting merely as a redistributor of free-to-air channels to UK-based ISP's.

From their faqs...

Quote:
Is TVCatchup legal?

Yes. TVCatchup is completely legal, and the broadcasters were consulted and themselves participated in a thorough review of the services offered.

We take such matters extremely seriously. The site is represented by leading copyright lawyer Laurence Gilmore of Hamlins LLP in conjunction with Expert Counsel Madeleine Heal under the counsel of the foremost authority in copyright and intellectual property law,the eminent Robert Engleheart QC of Blackstone Chambers.
