The BBC have no chance whatsoever to prosecute anyone in that matter. They put it online, anyone can download it.
They choose not to prosecute, because they can't win and they know it.

No you can not download this from Radio 1. You can only listen to it again at their website. Maybe you should visit it. They put measures in place to stop people downloading it. Maybe you should read this

The advent of the internet brought the programme to an international audience for the first time (the Radio 1 website launched in 1996). In 2002 the BBC launched their 'listen again' online radio service and the Essential Mix (along with the Essential Selection) became consistently the most popular specialist music show of the whole BBC Radio network amongst internet users. According to BBC server logs, the show receives around 50,000 online requests per week (though this can be much higher, with the 2003 Ibiza show attracting 96,682 requests), which compares to the shows 'live' audience of 80,000. Whilst demand for a podcast of the show is high, the BBC has resisted in making the show available in this way due to copyright issues. The development of peer-to-peer internet technologies spawned a new trend in which fans of the show made recordings of mixes available to users of services such as BitTorrent and eMule. Although technically illegal, as of yet the BBC has not taken any action against such activity. |
