Ah, that's vey interesting. Listening to the 320 kbit/s stream I have experienced a few momentary but uncharacteristic drop-outs per concert. I wonder if this is the same.Listening on FM I have also heard more than a couple of short dropouts which I don`t remember from previous years.
Yes - splendid sound with largely excellent programming and performances. Better sound than I have heard from any seat I have had in the RAH. However I haven't tried the binaural versions.Some excellent Proms this year, though. And overall, good sound. I guess I'm just not a fan of whatever they're doing to 'binauralise' the output.

It does make wonder if the way headphones and ears and hearing vary so much means that what might sound 'binaual' to one person just sounds 'odd' or 'different' to most other people. In this case I've wondered if the BBC are assuming, say, the use of in-ear units, whereas I use circumferal traditional 'phones. Makes a different to the transfer function.
