Can I listen to BBC radio in BBC iPlayer outside the UK?

"Yes, you can listen to BBC radio in BBC iPlayer if you are outside the UK. As long as the computer you are using has a recent version of Flash Player correctly installed, you should be able to listen live and listen again normally."

So everyone with internet access should be able to listen to JAM or ISIHAC from anywhere in the world. If they want to make a digital copy of what they're listening to then they can record it using Audacity or by connecting a digital recorder to the headphone socket of their computer/internet device.

It's true that outside the UK the bitrate is reduced to a 44.1Khz 48Kps stream but this is fine for speech and is certainly better than nothing at all!
