FWIW, a cheap/fast one off way to bulk download all your photos would be to sign up for a free trial SmugMug account, use their Flickr import tool and then do a bulk download from SmugMug. Using SmugMug's Flickr importer Firefox plugin (no, I don't know why they chose to make it a Firefox plugin), it took less than 2 hours to import ~8100 photos (44 GB) from Flickr to SmugMug and it preserved the metadata I had for the photos. Definitely not the most elegant way to do it, but if you needed to do it in a pinch it would work.
