However as others have said you can no longer listen to BBC national
stations by this method (local radio still works though.) I
understand get_iplayer is a Linux package so is no use for Windoze -
the only way in Windows is to go to either iPlayerRadio from the
iPlayer page, or go to the station page and select Listen now.

Use vlc or similar. The urls for the hls 320kbit 48kHz streams are all
around with a bit of searching.
