I do, and it's what I mean by a moving target: Ian Barton's page is, 
like mine, out of date since they've introduced their new flash-based 
iPlayer.

The Real Audio streams are supposed still to be available alongside the 
new flavour-of-the-month ones (currently mp3, slated to go to AAC RSN) 
for dial-up and visually-impaired users but Aunty seems to care more to 
present glossy web pages about her Good Intentions 
(http://www.bbc.co.uk/accessibility/) than actually to keep the ghetto 
versions maintained e.g. 
http://www.bbc.co.uk/cgi-bin/education/betsie/parser.pl/0005/www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio3_aod.shtml?radio3/worldroutes_sat
