I think for BBC costs play a big part - I'm sure BBC R3 has a bigger audience (and hence requires more bandwidth) than the Czech station. Citing costs, recently BBC have reduced the non UK rate down of most streams from 64kbps back to 48kbps (which was used up to about 2 yrs ago)
On a technical point - you have omitted to mention the recent changes to the internet streams - the introduction of AAC format and 192kbps for Radio 3. ( See http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/bbcinternet/2009/06/better_sound_for_bbc_radio.html ) If these are correct then your letter will get a rebuttal -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66393 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
