I envisage an iPlayer plugin update that just gets Listen Again working
using RTMP. That appears to be quite simple, and covers a lot of use
cases (I've got several people at work that keep asking me when Listen
Again is going to be fixed, none of them use play live).

I accept that the HLS live problem needs more work, probably quite a lot
more work. But that doesn't stop a plugin update to fix Listen Again,
everything doesn't have to be fixed at once. Fixing HLS could take
months.
