This is only partially true. You can still use it, but you must find the
PID of what you want by hand. You can't use it for scheduling, picking
shows from a list, etc anymore. If you manually go to the BBC schedules on
the web and copy the PID for each individual episode, you can still use it
in a limited way. However, for all practical purposes, it's dead and of not
much use anymore. It seems Auntie finally found a way to crack down on file
sharing sites as the new Nitro API requires registration and presumably can
be a lot more closely monitored. That means that if a new app comes along
similar to our beloved show grabber, Auntie can simply cut off use of the
particular API key and/or not allow registration in the first place.
