Why can't I store programmes on an SD card on my mobile or tablet?

You can only download programmes to your device’s internal storage. Our obligations to rights holders state that a downloaded programme can only be played on the device it was downloaded on.

If you download podcasts from our website on your computer, or from the browser on your mobile or tablet, you can transfer these to an external device. Find out more about this in our Can I transfer podcasts to another device? FAQ.
