Neither do Reciva or any other aggregator I am aware of unless it is their own product.

However, TuneIn does control what happens with their apps and itâs clear they have issues and are struggling to get it worked out with the BBC. You are correct, however, that at the end of the day it is the BBC that is providing the unreliable streams.

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.

Tunein does not support legacy Internet radios -- those who use the

base of Internet radios -- which cannot be upgraded to these protocols

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.
