There was an issue caused by a BBC change and sure enough there is a new version of get_iplayer to resolve it, and it occurred to me that it is unusual to get that level of responsiveness on a commercial product, let alone one that is maintained for (as far as I can tell) no reward except the knowledge of job well done.

So I want to express my gratitude to all those who make this great utility possible, and especially @dinky_pumpkin. I really appreciate all the work you put in to keep this program working and improving.

Seconded!

Thank you very much.

Well said!

Thanks.

YES!
Plus the code is open source - so any of us might step up and help in any future scenario.
