What we would need to know is whether there is any way we can get to the text only site if we have Flash installed.

Wow - that site really is quite...er...something! 2Mb just to load the
front page, and accessibility tool reports
"visually impaired users will find it impossible to use some pages"

OK, to answer Colin's question about the IOW stations, I'm managed to
dig out the following links:

Realplayer:
http://s3.viastreaming.net/7150/listen.ram

Windows media:
http://s3.viastreaming.net/7150/listen.asx

The one called "Listen - Itunes" is wrongly labelled, it's a pls playlist:
http://s3.viastreaming.net:7150/listen.pls

I feel they'd probably help themselves if they cut down the
advertising links too! Makes the actual radio rather hard to find!

The other problem is that it's just built from what's called a
"Moonfruit" template - a flash template where someone just fills in
the details.

Which makes it great for the people building it - no cost, not web
design skill needed.

For the end user, however, sometimes not so good.
