I'm sure the iPlayer team will be relieved, having shut down a similar app on the iPhone a few days ago (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/03/05/bbc_iphone/) this will be one less person to write a strongly worded letter to. Given that this is entirely open source (real open source, not Ian Hunter bizarro-land open source) and the number of users it has it seems unlikely that someone won't fork or maintain the code. If it does fall out of repair, it's back to torrents for TV catch up for me. Iain - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
