BBC HLS Feeds have been changed

[Nutul]

Very confusing.

This Radio One URL from the list plays just fine here from US but I thought the 320K bitrate streams were geo-locked ??

Currently there are 2 sets of BBC stations in moOde whose URL's stopped working.

- MP3 128K - not geo-locked
- AAC LC 320K - geo-locked to UK broadcast region

Questions:
1. Is geo-locking not being done for the streams in the aforementioned list ?
2. Are the stream links stable?

Me being in Bulgaria, the -uk- thing does not work (of course?), anyway, the -ww- @96000 still report 48K in VLC - is this again normal, as stereo 48K == 96K?
Apart from that, I have been listening to radio London for more than one hour now, without any glitch.
