So the whole cron-upload-download-display seems unnecessarily complicated and prone to failure. So I have spent the last week or so learning how to use Amazon Web Services!
Did you know that Amazon makes most of its cash from AWS, not from standard Amazon (although I imagine they're trying to get Prime Video to generate some cash also!)
It is very scary (not least because you have to input your card details) and complicated (because they use confusing greek words like Lambda). But there are some fantastic youtube tutorials out there to teach you what to do. 

It is all sorted now: at 3AM every morning AWS Lambda will run my python script and save that to my S3 bucket from where the MMM-JsonTable module can download it and display it on my mirror! Its just like Magic!
