It does seem to be in the lets try and see how we get on and if
theres enough interest then we might make it permanently available.

It's probably more to do with the way the BBC works and various
departments get funded than owt else;!.. -- Tony Sayer


Which is a very good reason to give positive feedback.

Yes. People more generally should bear in mind that such developments have
had a habit of first appearing as a R3 trial, then as a R3 stream, then
tend to spread to the other stations and 'on demand'. So it may benefit
other listeners in time if the same approach comes to fruit.

Sadly, I'm not sure how many people, so far, have either realised that the
trial has been running, or been able to make correct use of it. In the
nature of such things that people may have to fiddle about with their
computer, etc, or engage in 'geeky' things when they are a trial.

However the good news is that it's been confirmed that the Proms this year
will also be flac streamed. That should give it far more publicity and let
people have more advance warning to prepare.
