Did you check the xbmc.log? It's XBMC/Kodi that is performing the download, not the script - when the download fails the script is only reporting the error, it has no idea why the error has occurred, that's only known to XBMC/Kodi. I suspect that some websites reject multiple/concurrent requests from the same IP, or simply don't have the capacity to handle all of the requests (ie. intermittent server issues). I see regular failures with imdb.com (mainly cast/actors) which I believe is rejecting multiple concurrent requests from the same IP. Maybe thetvdb.com had an outage during your session, or is employing similar flood protection - retry and see if the same error persists.
