Entertainment, Radio, Muti-User games.

Entertainment has changed a lot over the past years, especially entertainment typically found on the internet, many websites have been set up to provide movies and tv shows to be watched online. One of these websites is 4od, the purpose of this website is to show any tv show that was shown on channel 4 for those who may have missed it.
The website is easily accessed, it only requires a free account to start watching tv shows and movies. Advertisements are quite common on this website, which is to be expected considering it is a free service.

Other website similar to this one is Netflix, Netflix allows users to pay a monthly fee of around £6 to watch any movie on the site, there is no limit to the amount of movies you can view, it even includes most new movies.
It allows you a free one month trial to see if you like the service, and after that if you continue to use the service it will charge you £5.99 a month.

These are just a couple of the many sites that offer movies and tv shows that were only previously available on the TV, watching movies and tv shows on a computer of mobile device has become increadibly easy and the popularity of such services has grown in the past few years.

Online Radio.
There are many online radio services but the most popular of which is BBC iPlayer, this website allows you to listen to live radio, as well as listen to radio from earlier which would be otherwise impossible to listen to.
This website doesn't require a log in, or any kind of payment to use the service, it is generally easy to navigate and find what you want. Although you are able to create an account which will allow you to get updates on tv shows and radio shows on your email. It will also allow you to comment on certain radio shows.

And that is just a few of the many websites that allow you to watch and listen to radio and tv shows/movies, the growing popularity of such sites are now making them very popular and easy to use, even being able to access them on you phone is a new feature that has proved very popular.
