Thanks Mathieu.
Streaming and previewing of podcasts would be very useful,
especially when deciding to subscribe to a new one as presently
you have to subscribe to listen and find out if you think its
worth subbing to.
I realise the Wi-Fi will be much faster, and that's good.
Should also mean that stations using higher bit rates should now
play on the new Stream.? I am guessing that if the BBC streams are
going to play on the new Stream then higher bit rates would have
to be handled most probably.? I am pretty sure the recording
facility on the Stream takes the stream as it comes in before A D
conversion so the radio programme gets recorded at the bit rate
the station is using.? that might well gobble up more memory so
saving recordings direct to a prememantly permantly inserted SD
card would be a good option to have too.

Hello Ray,
For the launch, podcasts will be downloaded still, not streamed.
But the wifi on the device being much better, if you have a good
Internet connection, the process should be much smoother.
But I'm taking note of this feedback and I'll see what can be done
in a future version.
Mathieu
