I tried to play some REAL files from bbc.co.uk using mplayer, but only some of them work. In one case it could not resolve a network address, in another case it seemed to want a '.dll' file - on a GNU/Linux system! This one works, however: mplayer rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/bbc7/1300_mon.ra

Thanks for the hint and thanks to the BBC for providing audio that is accessible using free software!
