    Do you mean "get_iplayer"? This is still going, and remains a very useful & powerful piece of software. In particular, it allows you to download any radio programme, not just those that are made available as podcasts.

    However, it is only for BBC iPlayer.

    Oh, that does sound like the same one but it had definitely been "pulled" at one point. I'll have another look, thanks.

    There was a slight crisis last year, when the BBC changed (I think) the indexing of iPlayer. There was a rumour that it had been done to block get_iPlayer, however it didn't actually have that effect.

    I had to download a new version of get_iPlayer, but it worked straight away once I had done that.

    It's very useful in that it creates MP3 files (requires option settings) for radio, and MP4 files for TV that will play on many devices.
