Do bear in mind that this kind of file conversion is likely to be first
against the wall when the revolution comes. A tool should do *one*
thing, and do it well. For get_iplayer, that is downloading the files.

Converting them to your favourite format du jour really ought to be left
to something else. And it *is*; it's just that get_iplayer is invoking
that something else for you.
