O.P. BBC channels now can be streamed!! :)

it seems that today the BBC has just made it avaliable for people to watch some BBC channels from the internet.
BBC1: http://support.bbc.co.uk/multicast/rams/uni/bbc1.ram
BBC2: http://support.bbc.co.uk/multicast/rams/uni/bbc2.ram
BBC4: http://support.bbc.co.uk/multicast/rams/uni/video16.ram
BBC News 24: http://support.bbc.co.uk/multicast/rams/uni/news24.ram

i think this is very useful and the quality is surprisingly good. needs real player though. it doesnt bring up some difficult questions about the license fee though.

Thanks for posting this mad_onion. I'm watching the snooker world championship final on BBC2 :banana:

This is only a trial though.

See BBC Multicast Trial

Looks great, but it doesn't work for me.

RealPlayer loads and wait for 2 minutes and then comes up with a error link.

Possible server error/overload? Maybe they stopped the trial?
