TiVo is using a visually similar implementation, but it is written completely in Flash. So I wouldn't automatically assume the video bitrates are identical. In fact, i'd assume the Flash version will use the best encoding the BBC make available elsewhere, as it's brand new (VM are the first user of it I think I've seen people say).
The same app is being made available to Popcorn Hour media streamers apparently, and no doubt other embedded-flash enables devices soon.

thanks, that makes sense. I would love to know what bit rate the tivo app actually streams at. Just techy curiosity.
