I couldn't get WMP10 installed, I gave up in the end.  Still, good luck 
with it, I'm sure there are probably a few people out there who would 
like the ability to use WMP protected content on Linux.

I'll keep checking what programmes are on iPlayer.  At the moment there 
isn't really anything on there that I'm overly excited about, but saying 
that no doubt something will show up in the future.
