@ksyer.bsky.social You should be able to listen to the 'Legend' programmes on Joni Mitchell via this page (scroll down past the Bruce Springsteen episodes) www.bbc.com/audio/brand/...

For anyone who, like me, listens to Nick Roberts' #beatsurrender show from Nova Radio on-demand after broadcast, and is wondering why there've been no new uploads since November, they're now going on Nick's Mixcloud channel (and #stereounderground FYI) www.mixcloud.com/nick-roberts7/

Calling out 'Ego' by The Q for its similarity to 'Start' by The Jam seems odd, given the latter's relationship to 'Taxman' by The Beatles... #stereounderground @richardlatto.bsky.social

@carrcole.bsky.social Try TuneIn again for the BBC stations, seems to have been fixed in the past few hours

The BBC has changed the format of the Sounds web-player to be more like the Sounds app: instead of always showing the player controls, they are hidden until you click on the bar at the bottom (left pic) which brings them up (right pic)

UK DAB news: the BBC has added R1Dance, R1Anthems & R3Unwind as DAB+ stations on its national multiplex; you'll need to rescan to pick them up. Other BBC stations have reduced bitrate to accommodate these, which may lower their audio quality, though this may not be the final configuration.

@kathyodonnell.bsky.social Does this help? bsky.app/profile/r-p-...

@lillnordheim.bsky.social Regarding the edition of 'Great Lives' on John Prine, the series is available internationally but probably on 28-days delay: check again around 10th September www.bbc.com/audio/brand/...

A tip for UK ex-pats whose BBC Sounds app has shut down: if your appstore account is still set to UK, and you can still see the Sounds app in it, try deleting and reinstalling the Sounds app, might get it going again for a few weeks; if that works, repeat as necessary...

@irishwol.bsky.social A VPN to the UK could let you access the full Sounds website, and maybe make the app work again too. Some VPNs are blocked by the BBC, so you might need to try several to find one that works; I've seen NordVPN or Surfshark or Mullvad being recommended

@bristol2chinon.bsky.social A VPN to the UK could let you access the full Sounds website, and maybe make the app work again too. Some VPNs are blocked by the BBC, so you might need to try several to find one that works; I've seen NordVPN or Surfshark or Mullvad being recommended

@flyingscot1964.bsky.social If your appstore account is still set to UK, and you can still see the Sounds app in it, try uninstalling and reinstalling the Sounds app, might get it going again for a few weeks; if that works, repeat as necessary...

@dutchbkate.bsky.social Some VPNs are blocked by the BBC, so you might need to try several to find one that works for Sounds; I've seen NordVPN or Surfshark or Mullad being recommended

I remember reading a comment years ago from someone who worked in a pub, saying that they used to play 'Voices' by Siouxsie & The Banshees on the jukebox at closing time to encourage any dawdlers to drink up and leave, as it was so weird and unsettling #stereounderground

@redsolver.dev I'm using #skyfeedback regex to find posts with radio & bbc, but when a matching post is a reply, the feed sometimes shows the preceeding post/thread too -- is there a way of omitting that context? (Bsky search doesn't show it, but the feed is more stable). My feed is SFradiobbc

Just published: How to listen to BBC Radio overseas And, some FAQs answered, and why they shut it down in the first place. Most interestingly, I learn: 4.8mn people a week use BBC Sounds inside the UK. Just 320,000 people a week used BBC Sounds outside the UK. james.cridland.net/blog/2025/ho...

Just interviewed for Feedback (tomorrow 3.30pm on BBC Radio 4, and podcast), talking about the good reasons for the BBC Sounds switchoff internationally, the messy, not-good replacement of it by the BBC app, and what happens next. Let's see what got past the edit! podnews.net/podcast/iasfq

@gossjam.bsky.social Which suggests that your appstore account is still set to UK (BBC app is non-UK only). If it is and you can still see the Sounds app in it, try uninstalling and reinstalling the Sounds app, might get it going again for a few weeks; if that works, repeat as necessary...

@cshurton.bsky.social The BBC is planning to keep its radio stations available internationally by other means, after Sounds is withdrawn; no details yet if that will include on-demand listening as well as live radio. See thread for developing context bsky.app/profile/r-p-...

So, BBC Sounds is not going to be turned off internationally after all - for now. Here’s a timeline of the shambles so far, and what I think happens next. james.cridland.net/blog/2025/bb...
