Hi and thanks.  I see you post on Get_iPlayer list but EasyTag didn't get a mention.  

I will certainly need some help with compiling it myself as my version doesn't have m4a 
support built in.  For starters where should I get the tar file and which version please?  

Once I have this I will do some homework on rolling my own.
