    Will let you know in a few minutes.

    EDIT: Nope, uses Flash unfortunately. HTML5 video would have been nice! :(

    Ah well - great deal all the same.

    Works great on Ubuntu, Chrome.

    Can this be used abroad like FilmOn?

    Doesn't look like it!
    4. Where can I watch WebTV?
    You can watch Magnet WebTV anywhere in the Republic of Ireland with a PC or Laptop where you have access a minimum of 1Mb of broadband connectivity.

    EDIT: Can confirm it doesn't work abroad. Friend of mine just tried it from Canada. No-go!

    Thanks for this just signed up. This will be handy when the champions league is on she wants to watch some soap. Just put the headphones and leave her to it.

    Yes it does , I have family in Canada/Australia who use it all the time , I use overplay from here (Ireland) to view BBC Iplayer , Hulu from the states , Access Spotify with UK connection etc. etc. etc..

    BTW all 3 of us are using the one overplay account ! so only £6.95/month total

    This is working perfectly on both my laptop and on my Samsung Galaxy S. Very handy.

    Interestingly they mention in the FAQ that "Subscriptions to Add-on packs are only available to Magnet broadband customers or Students of certain 3rd level colleges". Doesn't mention which colleges that covers but I've submitted a query to Magnet to find out.
