According to the BBC site:

Liten Again:

What's Liten equal in American English?
Lighten? Lit? Apple?

I don't get it!

Re:Who listens to radio plays?

Yeah, I agree. British TV sucks ass, hence the popularity of radio "across the pond".

The butt-ugliness of the race accounts for the lack of any serious british porn, as well.

I'm just saying they should make a movie so I won't get bored listening to cockneyed accents.

[Anonymous Coward]

I listened to the whole thing. It sucked!

The story structure, the character relationships, the setting, even the spatial relationships between characters: all destroyed.

For what? Some unfunny jokes. Bah.

Maybe they aimed low knowing that fan expectations couldn't be met no matter what, and it will get better. Maybe this post will get modded +5.

Oh and it is realplayer so it works fine under linux.

Why would anyone want to listen to something like this if they're going to use a proprietary format? My friend recorded a sci-fi comedy show that's distributed in Ogg Vorbis format, any everyone should listen to that instead! Plus, that capitalist pig Douglas Adams copyrighted everything he wrote. I can just download some Free sci-fi comedy books instead of reading HHGG books that cost $5.
