Hi, Not sure if this is appropriate for the list, but ... I have developed a tool for accessing the BBC's "Listen Again" service, so that I can download programmes and convert them to MP3s. This is a perl app with a CLI and a perl/Tk GUI, and is available under GPL at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bbc2mp3/ Mainly, I wanted to get some feedback on what you though of this, but also wanted to find out if I could make use of any backstage-type info about "Listen Again". At the moment I am "screen-scraping" info about programmes, so if this were available as a feed that would be great. Maybe "Listen Again" links could be incorporated into listings feeds? Also, would like to know what the BBC attitiude to this sort of thing is. I know that there are limited MP3 download / podcast trials going on, but presumably there are reasons (licence issues?) why this is not done across all the output.
