That's not true. According to the current rules, you need a TV license basically if you have a tuner in your house. This includes TV cards for PC's but does not include people with broadband that download all their programming.

"You need to be covered by a valid TV Licence if you watch or record TV
as it's being broadcast. This includes the use of devices such as a
computer, laptop, mobile phone or DVD/video recorder."
Since iPlayer isn't live, it does not fall under this category.
