Those of us living outside the UK can't watch or listen to a lot of
BBC stuff, although this one works - perhaps because it's Radio 4 not
TV.

Yes, I think only BBC TV is limited to UK viewing. You can even listen to
live BBC radio internationally over the Internet.

Sometimes the live Internet feed is turned off for some programming
even for UK listeners, because DAB and FM reception here is poor
without a large aerial we use the WIFI Internet Radio for much
listening away from the main set such as in the garden etc. There are
occasions when sport is transmitted that the feed gets replaced by a
message saying it is not available . I am making the assumption that
this is to stop overseas listeners getting the programme due to rights
issues and we just get caught up in that. Seems a bit petty,there
can't be many overseas who desire to listen to a couple of ancient
football types rambling on about football on a BBC local station.

The reason for Football matches being blocked on internet but aired on
VHF is that other stations (Commercial) have paid for the internet rights.
