You're right, he should have known instinctively that there would be some work-around for a service that has been specifically designed not to be downloadable, download and learn how to use the software (which is actually in breach of the iPlayer's Terms and Conditions) and then download and learn how to use some audio editing software so he can clip and download an interview to his iPod, as opposed to just requesting it from people that already know how to do all of that, like he already did.

He was mildly sarcastic whilst pointing out that your suggestion wasn't adequate for his needs, while you were pointlessly insulting and obnoxious - certainly sounds harsh to me.
