Default Radio 3 flac tests

Which is why I thought it was an April fool.
Also although flac is a compressed medium, its not a real time thing, its a
bit like zip. this is why very few players can play it like Ipods etc.

I also know from experience that any attempt to send such files over a lossy
compression won't work.

People may find this test interesting. Despite the date on one page it is
*not* an April Fool! Note that it may only run for 4 weeks.
