Jun 30, 2016 6:18 AM in response to turingtest2by brainmatters,No, no no. I know about internet radio and firstly, it doesn't have much BBC
you mostly get a repetitive intoned message that "due to content regulation this program is not available"or some such .Secondly, I'm talking about the subscription radio that until recently had a BBC World Service Logo available that is now gone and has Bloomberg and NBC instead! Outrageous! I know I can listen to BBC directly from their own website, but it's an extra step to do it. So I've cancelled my radio subscription and set up a favorites button for BBC--and of course I can listen directly with apps on my phone and iPad. Apple is going down an increasingly stupid path to my mind. -

How do you know it is Apple? It could be the BBC removing permission.
