BBC Sounds

[nads]

BBC Sounds will become the only way to access BBC radio on the internet mid next year.
might be time to see if your box maker is doing anything about it.

Yes,I got an announcement on my Linn streamer a few days ago. It’s already moved from TuneIn to Airable on my device, but it seems the BBC is obsessed with tracking us.

Last time they restricted the service I wrote to them to say I’d swap back to FM where they can’t track me!

My workaround is to use Apple Airplay from iPad to Linn DSM, which is up to CD quality, so plenty for the best BBC streams.

This stupidly undated message gives a list…but I think it’s a few years ago, judging by the dates of the subsequent links. Have you seen anything newer?

The only thing I used to listen to semi-regularly was 6 Music and I can't even remember the last time I listened to that.

I could also count on one hand the TV output of theirs I watch in any given year. The BBC has become largely irrelevant AFAIAC....

Funny you mention that, as I listen to radio dramas (very good) via BBC Sounds

It will be interesting if we lose the streams via the internet services (Tunein etc)
