I was really looking forward to this when I got ADSL but they seem to
just block any user agent that isn't IE.  Perhaps the steps I have used
successfully with the BBC Radio Player would work but I am not sure.

I am sure that the reasons for the block are not technical -- the
mplayer plugin for Mozilla/FireFox/etc is perfectly capable of playing
pretty much anything.

If you get time to try out the steps I just posted about on launch,
please let me know if it works.  I don't have time at the moment but it
would be great to get it working.

bye just now,
