Now that get_iplayer supports downloading audio streams separate from video ones in certain configurations, I'd like to request this functionality be extended with an --audio-only option.  As a blind user, I often download audio-described programming and immediately discard the video portion of the MP4 file with FFmpeg.  Downloading 500MB to 2GB (and sometimes more) of video just to delete it afterwards is time consuming and wasteful.

Thanks!

I can see the benefit. I should be able to implement that for next release.

Implemented in v3.07
