Just switched Radio on and a programme regarding the troubles and missing people. Kevin Connelly is interviewing people on both sides. Might be of interest to some of you.



The programme is obviously finished for those in NC but if you can find it Radio 4 09.00 - 10.00 the programme is called Broadcasting House with Paddy O'Connell.

thanks for the info dalartokat. It should be available soon via iplayer. Its on the list here as 'comming soon', usually takes 2-3 hours after it was first broadcast to appear on iplayer

OK Erolz, probably only a 15-20 min. slot but always worth listening to.

Pippe the RADIO streams (not TV, these will use considerably more data per second) on BBC iplayer are 128 kilo bits per second. This is 16 kilo bytes pers second. Which is 960 kilo bytes per minute, which is close to 1mb per minute (1024 kbytes = 1mbyte)



So in approximate terms it is around 1mb of data per minute of radio streaming.

Thanks for the link, worth a listen. I think it's the time I've heard a BBC radio presentation that wasn't biased in favour of the RoC.
