Peter:

out here in Seattle, I've enjoyed Play Classical.  A few commercials 
but nothing obnoxious.  Haughty British accented announcer quietly 
quoting lines now and again about the value of music, performing, the 
arts.

I like it.

I pull it up on my Mac with iTunes.  It showed up automatically on the 
list one day.

Shame about the-jazz; I listen to a lot of jazz and hate it when a site 
goes away.

My fav jazz site is:  The Spirit of Jazz    96 kbps    "In The Style of 
S. F. `s Legendary KJAZ"

Cheers,

Bob

No...it's not. Radio4 still **very much** exists and is the flagship

channel.

see: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4

Auntie BBC does a seriously good job of providing digital support with
instructions on how to play, support for Windoze, MacOs and UNIX/Linux.

Don't know "Play Classical UK"

BTW If you are intersted in Jazz try:

http://www.the-jazz.co.uk/Default.asp

it closes in six weeks, but it is well worth listening to while it is 
there. They claim that DAB isn't a commercially viable medium. THe 
trouble is that so few people knew that it was there at all.
