Only the installer itself writes to the registry, and that's just 
version and uninstall info, so not relevant to a portable app config. 
get_iplayer can run in a portable fashion, but you have to feed it 
enough information on the command line to make it work.  The principal 
convenience of the Thinstall approach is that you don't have to include 
all that information on the command line with every invocation.
