Haha, I don't think it'd kill DAB though. I prefer listening to some quality.

I agree, in that I do prefer Podcasts as they are much more flexible but,
unfortunately, not everything is available as a podcast.
They could just do away with DAB altogether for example and put their money
into Podcast development!

Hi Graham,
I don't recommend anything, as I don't use Internet radio on my phone. I am
more a Podcast man.
All the best

Hi folks. Yesterday I was a little frustrated, as I wanted to listen to
some commentary on my phones FM radio as I walked home with my sons, but then
found out that it was being broadcast over the internet instead. BBC programs
as you know, use the iPlayer to broadcast and therefore it isn't available via
the phone unless you use a wi fi connection...and, of course, the iPlayer isn't
supported anyway.
Well tonight I put my thinking cap on to see if there was a way around
this. Now I don't want to presume people aren't doing this already, but as I
haven't read any posts on this I'll tell you what I did and hopefully some of
you may find it useful. I went to my local BBC radio page and clicked on
"listen live". iPlayer opens and the radio stream begins. I then opened a
program I have which can detect the URL of any media currently playing. Anyway
from that, with a bit of editing from the beginning of the URL found, I was
left with a direct link to the BBC stream that bypasses the iPlayer. I sent
this link via e mail to my phone, clicked on "open link" and hey presto real
player kicked in and I had the station!
I did the same for a few other BBC stations and all worked perfectly. I
just saved the stream into the gallery for future use. I guess this can be
done for any station. I'm going to try ITV tomorrow and see if that works
aswell. If anyone needs links to put into their phones, let me know and we'll
see what we can do. Cheers Steve.
