The project known as Canvas, would develop set-top boxes to access services such as BBC iPlayer and ITV player.
The boxes could be available by the end of next year and will sell for around £200. In addition to these services, users will be able to access internet services such as Facebook, YouTube and Flickr. The news of this free service has not pleased everyone however. Pay TV providers such as Virgin and BSkyB are critical of the scheme.
