Publisher's Description
From Phantom Gorilla:
Listen to all 59 of the BBC's national, regional and local radio streams, right on your Dashboard. Includes comprehensive live schedule information, Flash streaming option (option-click the "i" button) and even a RealPlayer workaround so you only lose a couple of seconds audio when leaving Dashboard.
This widget is completely free, but donations are gratefully accepted on the author's website.
What's new in this version:
- Fixed regional schedules to work with BBC's updated web pages.
- Greatly improved schedule readability.
- Fixed a possible issue with audio erroneously restarting on Dashboard exit.
- Fixed some issues with daylight savings time and schedules.

"Used for a long time on PPC, now on Intel - TROUBLE!"
Version: BBC Radio Widget 3.1
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Used with my PPC Dual G5 PowerMac for a few years with nary a hiccup.
I've been trying to cajole my new MacBook Pro into letting the widget to no avail. It will play as long as the dashboard is open - but after I start playing it and then try to go do some work, it pauses.
Maybe this is how it is supposed to work, but I don't believe so.
I have reinstalled both the widget and Real 11.0. I have restarted.
No go!
Help?
I love this widget and love the BBC World Service. -

"A must-have widget"
Version: BBC Radio Widget 3.1
Summary

I say this as I'm listening to the wee hours of BBC Manchester at 9:00 p.m. Chicago. Easy to use, lots of BBC choices, doesn't seem to hit performance too much. I love it. I wish I'd known about it sooner! -
