I've actually patched my get_iplayer to use eyeD3. (http://eyed3.nicfit.net/) It's a python script, so should be os agnostic, and also allows tagging of artwork as well as the standard ID3 tags. I wasn't happy with the code changes (it hard codes a test for the 'eyeD3' string into get_iplayer which seems a dreadful hack), but it worked for me. I could supply my patches if interested, and they could be integrated, however, I'm not sure how much work would be involved in supplying the python libraries etc for a standard eyeD3.
