Chris,
I have been watching this list and couldn't agree more. If you look
at most peoples worlds they have to break some copyright just to get
something new off the ground. If the BBC is interested in this code
then I would think that they would be more than thankful that someone
has taken the time to write it, after all this does the same thing:

As the music business proves, the copyright laws are in need of a
complete rewrite, they should
not stop innovation.
It is ones terms of use and actual usage of a product that determines
whether it breaks the law or not. In this case it would take two
seconds to change any wording and become legit.
Sorry, I hate to see the fear factor determine what can be done:)
Regards
Richard

Not exactly helpful feedback is it?
Ave; your script is almost certainly breaking copyright - the
Listen Again service is time limited (media available for 7-14 days
after initial transmission then it gets removed I believe) as are
all services like it to my knowledge - I would remove the project
from SourceForge and explore licensing issues.
Regards,
C.
