bbc iplayer is flash based, so you can just use a web browser on your media center no?

XBMC works on Windows systems and has loads of plugins, including iPlayer and ITV. Becasue it's open source new plugins and features are always being made.

Very true.
Depends if you're using the Media Center on the computer itself, or on an extender like the 360.
Media Browser is also a good one for Media Center, especially when used with Meta Browser.
