BBC Radio 3 international 320k AAC+ streams
# The following command will give you a list of BBC streams that can be accessed from anywhere since BBC only does their geoIP filtering on access of the stream *playlist*, not on access of the stream itself.
curl -sx http://[INSERT UK HTTP PROXY HERE]/ 'http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r3_aaclca.pls'|egrep -o 'http://.*$'
# Low-bitrate international stream URLs look like this:
# http://bbcmedia.ic.llnwd.net/stream/bbcmedia_intl_lc_radio3_q?foobarbaz
# Notice the "intl" there.
# High-bitrate domestic stream URLs look like this:
# http://bbcmedia.ic.llnwd.net/stream/bbcmedia_lc1_radio3_p?foobarbaz
# Notice the lack of "intl" there.
# I know this is kind of a crappy solution, but it turns out it is not too hard to find an open proxy on the interwebs so I can live with this for now.
