BBC iPlayer blocks offline viewing on Windows, Mac devices from 11th March; existing downloads valid until 8th April.

The BBC is set to block the offline viewing feature on some devices from March 11th. Windows PCs and Apple MacBooks will no longer be able to download programmes for offline viewing, though existing downloads can still be watched until April 8th. The BBC iPlayer service has long allowed users to view content without an internet connection, making it a popular choice for travelers. However, this change will affect viewers who use these devices for offline viewing, including popular shows like Match of the Day, EastEnders, and more.
