This is mad cool.  BBC is currently the only major news 
organization that offers Vorbis streams (correct me if I'm 
wrong).  BBC.co.uk was, up until now, behind.. technologically 
speaking.  BBC.co.uk offers only RealPlayer G2 (!) streams, but 
now something a little more up to date is offered.

BTW, will RC3 have more support for sample rates lower than 
44.1kHz?  22.1kHz is eminently more useful than 44.1kHz for 
streaming to use low-end 56K users..
