Public Interest Test consultation on BBC iPlayer proposals."To reflect changing audience expectations and ensure the BBC can continue to serve audiences, the BBC is proposing to transform iPlayer, from primarily a catch-up and linear TV service into a destination for our audiences, where the BBC’s programmes will be available for longer, both for individual programmes and box sets."

On 30 June 2008, the UK's Office of Fair Trading referred the proposal to the Competition Commission with concerns that "there was a danger that the platform could be too powerful". The Commission published an interim report on 3 December saying that the service could "hurt competition" and a final report was published on 4 February 2009, formally blocking the project.
