While SB Touch could have HLS or DASH implemented within Touch as Triode
implemented Flash - IIRC the development environment is difficult and
nobody around has done any similar development recently so the knowledge
maybe lost.   

There is a problem with vendors implementing DASH or HLS. They need to
get revenue from existing products lines to repay development costs. 
Current hardware probably can't be upgraded for HLS / DASH and if a new
product support HLS/DASH it will make existing products obsolete. The
BBC by changing from Flash to http/AAC to HLD, HDS and DASH in a few
years mau have gone too far ahead of the vendors.

For most internet radio users the MP3 (and AAC for R3) live streams from
BBC are adequate.
