Does this mean anything for people like us?
Does it mean anything for people like me who live outside of the UK?

Love, David

According to an interview I just heard on R4 just now it will mean a fuller experience for the on-line listener experience. In particular live radio for all BBC channels, you can get that now but not all in one place, currently you have to go the website for each channel and select 'Listen live'. there will also be a dedicated app for smart phones etc.

It is seen that the radio section of the current iPlayer is the poor relation.

There seems to increased interest in making Archive material available and even tracking down lost episodes, see link in an earlier posting. Good for us.

This is all about making BBC Radio more accessible to users with smartphones and tablets. I installed the app on my iPad to test it out. It has an alarm function to wake up your device before your favourite shows start and it has the same "listen again" functionality as iPlayer.

I'm sure the BBC will continue to share their radio streams online through their website so it's nothing to worry about...

I don't think it's ALL about smartphones and tablets, rather it's a complete new website and iPlayer that has an app associated with them.

If you go to the website, there is a whole host of info for each station/programme even videos.

Yupp, there are still 'LISTEN LIVE' buttons on the individual station web pages.
