BBC music abandons the rest of the world

After listening to the annual King’s College Lessons & Carols, I kept wanting to replay it — but the link would not work. I sent several bug reports to BBC.co.uk. It turns out the BBC has abandoned their non-UK listeners. Since July 2025, the new BBC policy has become Live L&C on BBC 4 (Christmas Eve) tape-delayed on BBC (Christmas Day)Replay from the BBC app for up to seven days after Christmas EveNothing else So ignore what it says on the BBC website: if you are outside the UK, the “12 days left to listen” should "12 days too late to listen.”  The web crew at the BBC is too lazy to either display accurate information for non-UK users, or provide a more useful message than a generic “404” message when you click through. With this change, the Beeb assumes that their only globally valued content is the news. The loss of the KCC service to the ROW is a cultural travesty. The KCC Choir doesn’t seem to care — perhaps because they prefer to sell audio and video recordings of their services, rather than worry about free replays.
