Thanks for a great app for the iPad. Overall I find that it works brilliantly with the duet. Very rarely use the controller anymore. I do notice though that after a library rescan for new music that re caching takes a long time and that playback stops and starts until the caching has finished.

Both AAC and MP3 use Flash as Transport so I expect their service to be similar. I think WMA may use a different set of servers/network connections. You need to check BBC iPlayer web behaviour before you complain. I think BBC iPlayer to be the reference service and it uses AAC by default.
