Announcing version 0.9 of the BBCiPlayer plugin.  This supports
Squeezecenter 7.3.x and 7.4 (but will have slightly some slight
restrictions with 7.3).  It includes major internal rewite to make use
of the FlashAAC/MP3 streams where possible.  This allows support of non
UK as well as UK based users.  Note the bitrates available outside the
UK are restricted to 48kbit.

Major features:
- UK National listen live streams using AAC 
- UK National listen again streams for the last 7 days of bbc radio
output using AAC
- UK Regional listen live and listen again streams using AAC
- UK Local radio listen again streams using MP3

Known restrictions: 
- it is sometimes necessary to go back to the top of the menu hierachy
and then nativate back to a stream if you want to restart it.  This is
resolved with 7.4
- bookmarking streams using the preset buttons on boom should be done
from the menu entry for a stream rather than the now playing screen.
- creates more server cpu load than the pervious version of iPlayer. 
This is because aac streams are transcoded on the server.

Thanks to Bryan(bpa) for extensive testing of the streams outside the
uk as I am unable to do this.

Enyoy..
