Christopher and all, Thanks for the recommendation of Real Alternative. I will download it and give it a try.
Christopher, if the Winamp plug-in can't be used to listen to the BBC streams, what would it be used for? Thanks, Caroline. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Christopher Maule-Oatway Sent: 26 June 2004 17:40 To: PC audio discussion list. Subject: Re: Listening to BBC Broadcasts With Winamp Hello Caroline, Try 'Real Alternative' which you can download from www.whitestick.co.uk. I have used it for playing broadcasts from the BBC's website successfully, though occasionally the player is not recognised for some reason. Unfortunately the plug-in for Winamp cannot be used to play the BBC streams. There are a number of programs that can be used to record streaming audio from the internet. The only one I have used is Goldwave, and that only very briefly. Hope this helps.
