They can't charge for the iPlayer because it's a BBC service you've already paid for in your TV licence. That at least should be in the M package. Don't know about the rest of their VOD stuff, but as they will want to give you access to all the stuff that they can charge you for per-view, I would have thought it in their interests to make it available on M.
