14 DAY TRIAL // A universal application by IOS Premium costs just $0.99, or 0.79 Euro cents, and streams all the popular British channels you can think of to your iPhone or iPad for free.
Buyers are told by IOS Premium to consider writing a 5-star review to earn more channels and, so far, the impressions are mixed.
For example, it isn’t clear if the app is exactly legal to begin with, which makes it all the more interesting that Apple went ahead and published it in the App Store.
Second, some customers appear to be unable to stream content to their devices, while others are jumping up and down with joy that they’re able to watch some of their favorite TV channels, live, for free, directly on their iDevice.
With the AirPlay option, users can even stream the channels from their iPhone or iPad to their television set via Apple TV.
The app’s iTunes description bluntly states that “‘Tv English Premium’ is an application that lets you watch English language TV channels. This application works from any country in the world. All TV channels are live.”
The full list of TV channels available through this app is:

There’s a good chance Apple will yank this app pretty soon, so grab it while you can, if you’re interested.
We stress “if you’re interested” because the service may stop working at any time. So far, however, Apple seems to condone it.
