Not just the UK
The BBC version of Real Player is available for download from other countries as well. Having encountered the version which so upsets Rupert in the past, I have been careful only to download the BBC version to the 4 PCs/laptops I have used here in Fiji for the last few years and there is no suggestion in the relevant BBC help pages that there may be problems in any country.
The bit I don't understand is why BBC7 programmes happily download to Real Player, without any prompting or selection of options, whereas Radio 4 programmes are determined, despite my clicking the special option to"listen using Stand Alone Real Player" , to load and play themselves in the decidedly less-user friendly BBC iPlayer , putting my Real Player on "pause"; but this is presumably a BBC problem, not another grievance against the makers of Real Player....
