Michael is probably thinking about mysqueezebox.com use with the Touch
and Radio using the BBC Radio Applet. For that scenario he's probably
correct, the boxes stream direct from the source and mysqueezebox.com
doesn't do anything other than supply pointers to the streams etc.

I'm much more intersted in using my local LMS (I'm on the released 7.8)
to transcode, probably using the BBC iPlayer plugin to strip the HLS. I
use a Receiver so the AAC needs transcoding to FLAC anyway.
