    Actually I'm hopin for .flac's, or at least .ogg's
BTW, I listened to the new preview, but the original was available 
in mp3's.  Which mp3_check said had many errors, couldn't fix, 
cdrecord wouldn't accept .wav's made from them for audio CD 
burning.  DRM?  Anyhow the mp3's played fine.

   Sorry I forget, no longer have, the ftp link I got 'em from. 
Somebody on the OT list posted it.  For those that don't know, 
the six hour fantasy, albeit reality, of the Hitchhiker is worth 
any effort to get it.  If the new version is that much different, 
I'd still think the original would be better listened to first.

    FWIW, the video preview is here
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/hitchhikers/mp3/hitchhikers_video.mov
     (PLF mplayer does it nicely)
