... While all users are encouraged to update to / use
the latest released (stable) version of GiP, there is very
small difference between 2.93 and 2.94 - 2.94 was released
as a hotfix soon after 2.93, to address some live streams issues:

In the meantime, the beeb have also broken live TV streams in 2.94,
so currently 2.94 only adds the ability to stream/record 6 Music+1Xtra.

 As you can read in recent list traffic, the issue Chris Marriott
was facing was unrelated to him being still on 2.93!
