Do we need a single place where all the UK’s TV VOD is aggregated?
Following the demise of Kangaroo, rumours abound as to the imminent entry to the UK of would-be aggregators such as Hulu and YouTube .
Meanwhile I’m really enjoying the work of 123webTV, Tanktop TV and Teev.co.uk (and doubtless others), all of whom enable discovery of all 4oD, iPlayer and ITV Player content by aggregating not content but metadata.

Hi, and (belated) thanks for mentioning Tank Top TV!
Even if Hulu, YouTube or anyone else provides aggregated content from multiple sources, my guess (uneducated as it is) is that they will be unlikely to have rights to all the available content from all channels. So there will be scope for services like ours which attempt to aggregate listings from as many sources as possible, right?
We'd also like to think that we're offering some "special sauce" too in letting you personalize your listings, and (eventually) giving recommendations - which is another reason we believe there will still be space for Tank Top when these services come online.
