Steve Ashmole-Day<p>Lovely to hear Ronald Binge’s son interviewed on Soul Music this evening. Ronald Binge is best known for composing Sailing By. I’ve not heard the whole programme yet. The piece was apparently in the BBC library from the mid-1960s, although the recording used for the Shipping Forecast now is an EMI recording from the 1970s. There were 2 recordings released on Rediffusion, one of which had vocals! Ronald Binge recorded with Rediffusion in the 1970s. <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/bbcradio4" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bbcradio4</span></a></p>

Is @BBCRadio4 #BBCRadio4 still live-streamed anywhere? It used to be at

a.files.bbci.co.uk/media/live/

but that now returns error code 410 GONE.

I used to use the live stream to time-shift programmes so that I could listen to them in the car.

I specifically don't want to use the #BBCSounds app because I can't be fiddling with an app while I'm driving. (Besides, I use my phone for navigation).

I know that some programmes are available for downloading, but not all of them, and frequently not the ones I want to listen to.

I don't want to listen to the radio live, because it always seems to be Woman's Hour or The Archers, neither of which interests me.
