From City of Sound, via Matt Jones:
But an equally big deal ... is that we managed to push through offering this year's BBC Reith Lectures as DRM-free, mp3 downloads. They'll be added to the site after each lecture (looks like first one will go up Thursday morning). This may not sound like a big deal to folks, but this 'trial' is something we haven't managed to do before - so we're hoping there's a good reaction from punters. If the trial's successful (in terms of downloads and public reaction) we hope to be able to do more of this stuff. This year's lectures are by playwright Wole Soyinka, concerning "The Climate of Fear". Go have a listen, and let me/us know what you think. I'd be interested in your thoughts.
