New version of the BBCiPlayer plugin released.

The main change to this version is that it uses the native aac streams
that the BBC has made available for their main live stations.  These
are used in preference to flash streams if you have the preference
enabled (on by default).  If you have problems with aac streams, you
can still set the prefer wma option to always use wma streams.

I believe the normal Radio 3 aac stream is 320, so this means that
Radio 3 listeners can use the normal Radio 3 menu entry rather than the
Radio 3 HD one.  [I would also be interested if Touch users notice any
difference between these two 320 k streams]

Users outside of the uk may get higher bitrate versions of these
streams than the flash aac ones - I don't know about this as the plugin
just plays the streams made available from the BBC.  Hence any comments
on audio bitrate are really down to different BBC policies between
streams.
