      this is a disaster! there was loads of really useful factual content here in actual words which i could print out and put in my bag and read on the toilet and stuff, or cut and paste into an email. Now there's just a bunch of videos. Really this is baaad, i was right in the middle of reading loads of great stuff about sample clearance, rights and all sorts. Is there anyway i can get that back? what a shame...

      Hi abdul_tom - I think you're referring to the old 'One Music' How To guides on the Radio 1 site. We've updated most of this text, since it a lot of it was over five years old.

      You can now find these updated in depth text guides (with downloadable and printable PDFs) right here - just click through to the subsections in the right hand navigation to read more.

      Hope this helps!
