I took a closer look and it turned out that some content is geo blocked and UK only. Podcasts and some radio channels are available for all.

Now that https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor/pull/810 is merged, this one became easier

@yoshimo Easier how? Does BBC use DASH?

It connects to aod-dash-ww.live.cf.md.bbci.co.uk yes

@MainTomato writes in https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/pull/3857#issuecomment-739066458 I can see some improvements that can be made.

It would be nice to be able to view all the categories on this page In the app - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/categories

as some of above content is geo-restricted for outside of UK, there is Asian feed of sounds https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/live:bbc_asian_network

On the homepage of https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds there's tons of featured content like "Unmissable Sounds". Adding a featured tab to the app would be nice as well. As of right now I think It's hard to view all the content sounds has to offer unless you search for It.
