iPlayer Radio: Buffering & Programme Availability Update 09:25am on 28 Aug 2008 As above, please have standard mp3/aac streams!
I would love to listen to listen again BBC radio on my iPhone, and also would love it if I cold have the streams in iTunes so that I can play them around my house to the multiple of speakers i have dotted around teh place.

It woulds seem a shame to buy an internet radio just to receive the streams when I have an iPhone, and a multiroom media center!

Im even thinking I may give in and get a Logitech squeezebox, but even that only has a third party workaround solution, and with these new BBC changes, it may even stop working.
Sky and Universal v iTunes and file-sharers 2:49pm on 23 Jul 2008 To me its obvious why people still dont like legal digital downloads:

Imagine a world where CDs only played on Sony or Apple CD players, and depending on what shop you buy it from, the quality was good or bad. You couldnt lend they to anyone, sell them on when you are bored of them and at anytime the company that sold you the CD goes bust or stops selling CDs and then the CD stops playing. And to make matters worse, even though this media has far more restrictions that what was before, we are asked to pay more for it!

Thats why I dont get many albums via digital download yet. Make it like the experience of real CDs and Im interested as long as it no more expensive than a CD.
The latest on our audio improvements 11:46am on 16 Jul 2008 Like many other people, i would love a way of playing bbc radio on my Apple devices, its a bit restrictive using real and windows media when my devices use mp3 or aac.

Ideally we would have a native iphone iplayr app that would have all the fantastic iplayer content in, plus also all the live and listen again radio stations so i can listen anywhere.

At the moment i dont have a dab radio, or want one as the signal is too poor here, but i have v fast internet. i would love to get radio 7 on a device i cab carry about and one i already own!

One other thing that would make this fantastic fr me would be to have BBC radio available in iTunes as radio steams, and perhaps even have streams for listen again!

Ive always wanted a Sonos multiroom audio system, but could never afford one. Now Apple have a free remote app for the iphone and ipod touch that lets you select anything from itunes and play it on as many airtunes speakers as you have around the house. so ihave speakers in the bedroom, living room and kitchen and can select any album i own and play it in any room, or all of them at the same time. Now how good would it be if this worked with radio too? i could select radio 7, and get it streaming to my main computer with itunes on it, which then steams to all my speakers around the house!

please, please, please add an iphone iplayer app inc radio and add radio streams to itunes. thanks
