Incidentally, Tunein doesn't stream anything per se. You need to think of them as a DNS (domain name server, i.e., a "lookup") for content. They then hand you off to whatever is actually providing the content so you are effectively telling me your beef is with BBC servers. Now that I have no problem believing.

Off-topic: If you ever get a burning urge to know what cops are doing in my corner of the multiverse, check outÂhttp://tunein.com/radio/Southwest-Harris-County-Law-Enforcement-s208896/.Â Yep, that gets you handed off to one of my laptops.

Tunein does not support legacy Internet radios -- those who use the
Reciva and vTuner platforms.Â It is the abandonment of this installed
base of Internet radios -- which cannot be upgraded to these protocols
-- that has generated the outcry.

Even parts of TuneIn have been hobbled by these changes -- the
capability to listen on-demand to some programs ("Episodes" in
Tunein-ese) isn't working.
