Thanks, RobertE.  I can confirm that the 'id' field is back to normal.

One thing I noticed in the listings from the replacement service is that 
it is sending data for all channels in the lineup(s), instead of just 
those that were enabled on the SD website.  This works fine, in that one 
gets the listings, but does take more bandwidth and time.  This is not 
something that I think needs to be "fixed" soon, but just an 
optimization for later, if ever.

I have been using the replacement service for the last couple of days, 
and I am noticing something that concerns me.  The listings data I am 
getting appears to not be equivalent enough to the previous service to 
match my previously recorded rules.  I'm seeing shows that I know I 
previously recorded being rescheduled for future recordings.
