Re: [Swprograms] Jerky Proms

Don't worry it will get worse for the Olympics, remember the discussions
we had on this list about trying to get RealAudio streams and getting
the ubiquitous message that "due to rights issues" this broadcast is not
available over the internet. 

If the BBC wanted it available, believe me, they would find a way to do
it.

IMHO the BBC needs to negotiate stricter terms of service with their
streaming providers. 
I agree that the "just not possible" cop-out is unacceptable. It is not
rocket science to check quality-of-service for Internet services. 
I think John has a couple good suggestions with respect to signoff ("we
are now closing on this frequency, and we invite you to re-tune to us
on...") and stream ID ("you are listening to the BBC WS for the
Americas...") 
Neither of these is rocket science...considering how automated these
processes are supposed to be.
