anyway to improve realplayer steaming?

i watch bbc businss news on line via the bbc website...but the quality of the video is poor. the video is streamed and played at 34 Kbps....is there any way i can improve the quality. bbc does not give you an option to choose different Kbps. thanks

Why do you watch the business news anyway ? All of it is out of kilter with what is really happening.
Watching the news and hanging on the everey word uttered by reporters and commentators is a quick sure fire way to becoming terribly confused.

i don't quite understand the point you are trying to make Socrates. Terribly confused, why?

It is very simple, if you look at charts, at the simplest level, you will see that the bottoms in market coincide with the worst news and the tops coincide with the best news. The news does not drive prices. The news and price development are separate issues. Because they are separate issues and not in sync., for added reasons that require a whole book to be written around it, using the news as a guide is not and cannot be reliable. It is more prudent to blot out the news and go on what is actually developing and then, when you have done that, you will come to the conclusion that because the above is the case, the "news" frequently is the opposite to what is happening in reality.

do you mean use technical analysis?i don;t know why you believe so stronger that news does not drive prices....but i think many investors believe it is reliable to base their investment decisions around this. maybe you can explain more....
