So I use a single key and it gets taken by a user - I get the blame by
the BBC, the key gets revoked and all users of the plugin suffer.
Alternative is all user of plugin have to register with BBC for a key as
a developer, described their App (the same one for each user) and hope
BBC will issue a key.  Given that BBCiPlayer plugin has been downloaded
up to about 16,000 times and  I'm sure there are multiple downloads so
perhaps would the BBC be happy to issue say 4,000 keys  ?
