We have retained a single SHOUTcast stream of each service

For anyone interested, this can be accessed by using
mediaset=http-icy-mp3-a;
a template URL would be:
http://open.live.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/5/select/mediaset/http-icy-mp3-a/vpid/[vpid]/format/pls.pls
For National Radios, [vpid]= any of:
bbc_radio_one
bbc_radio_two
bbc_radio_three
bbc_radio_fourfm
bbc_radio_four_extra
bbc_radio_five_live
bbc_radio_five_live_sports_extra
bbc_6music
bbc_asian_network
bbc_world_service
These MP3 streams are all @128kbpsCBR/44.1KHz
(even for Radio 3), except for World Service, which is
a measly 48kbps!

All our new stream links for .... Shoutcast mp3 have been made available
to manufacturers and to stream aggregators.
We have not shared these publicly at this time.
One of the main issues we have faced with the previously widely available
links
is the inability to tell who is accessing our streams and how they are
doing it.
This makes it very difficult for us to assess the impact of changes
such as those we are making today.
Well..., I suppose I ruined it for them :-(
I am genuinely sorry!
