This business of what bit rate is available seems rather odd.

On Radio 3 and Radio 4 (the only two I have looked at) the BBC iPlayer
flash client indicates that the stream is 320 kbps, HDS from the
limelight server. That usually (but not always) tallies with the
bandwidth I measure with a utility.

I've just looked at what seems to be available for HLS and DASH for
Radio 3, using the BBC's AOD availability link and then the
mediaselector links given:

The DASH stream has two "Adaption Sets" - one giving a min/max of
128/320 kbps (perhaps for UK users?) and one giving a min/max of 48/96
kbps (perhaps for non-UK users?)

But the HLS stream only has 128 kbps available.

(Forgive me if I am talking nonsense as I am not very knowledgeable and
am feeling my way.)
