You can download BBC radio clips to some extent. But these clips are
usually of no real importance, i.e. sound clips from The Blitz, paddle
steamer on the Mersey, etc, clips that you find on some BBC history and
nostalgia pages . But all your regular programs, BBC Live 5, Radio 1
through 7, etc can't be downloaded.  The only thing you download from
BBC's radio player is an html document. I've checked the source file of
that and find it near impossible to steal an audio file.

Further to a question on the list a few days ago, it seems that offline 
explorer pro from metaproducts will allow the real audio from the bbc's 
listen again facility to be saved as a file.

A friend with sight has achieved this.  However, I have downloaded the 
demo but cannot get it to work.

Would anyone like to have a go?

You can get it from www.metaproducts.com and you need offline 
explorer pro.
