Today Sky Player have added Sky One to their list of channels you can watch live... meaning we can now watch Lost and 24 on our computers/laptops wherever we are... amazing. They've timed this well with Easter coming as I'm going away and have to say I was a little worried about all the catching up I was going to have to do afterwards! Apparently The Pacific starts Easter Monday as well. :)http://blogs.skyplayer.sky.com/announcements/Post:2ec9b22e-32d1-4c4a-a1ad-622ab999af5f

    They said March for the Pacific originally.
    Great, a month of Movies that I don't actually need. Classy Sky.

    Should have waited until a confirmed start date was announced.

    Very slowly! I doubt it will ever be as popular as iPlayer. Too many channel's on Sky Player require a Sky Sub of some sort to view. Including Sky News!

    I think they should offer Sky News for free as a loss leader to encourage people to use it.

    And so they should. No point paying the subscription if you can just watch online for free. It's not too much of a hassle for subscribers to type in their subscriber number to access the content is it?
