All these interviews are available as a Podcast which I have downloaded. The audio quality is 128 kb/s while the original broadcast is 320 kb/s. The quality difference is not critical in my opinion as it is mostly speech but I would be interested to know if podcasts can be downloaded at a higher quality.
All the BBC podcasts I have seen recently have offered a choice of 128kbit/s and 64kbit/s, including when abroad. If you want 320kbit/s you will have to use get_iplayer to get the M4A file. If you are happy with 128kbit/s or 64kbit/s, many podcasts download a lot faster. They are in MP3, so if you have a player with problems playing AAC/M4A you don't need to convert them.
