Lossless Streaming Trial (OGG-FLAC)

We are currently broadcasting our services without compression using OGG-FLAC technology. This will no doubt be pleasing for all you audiophiles out there but do bear the following points in mind:

• This is a trial - we don't guarantee it to be perfect!
• Lossless streaming takes up a LOT of bandwidth. It averages 1 MBit/sec.
• Broadband only!
• If you have a heavily contended or just generally ropey broadband connection you will experience buffering
• If your broadband connection has restrictions (such as download limits) bear this in mind. You may end up using all your allowance very quickly.
  

Using it

We recommend you download and use VLC. It's available for most platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Syllable, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, QNX) and supports OGG-FLAC streaming.
