If you can locate the URL that links you directly to the .ra file itself, you can type the location into your web browser and download it onto your hard drive (unless of course, it is cgi-based, as someone properly pointed out... you could try it anyway to see if it works though). Downloading the .ram file (metafile) does no good, as this file simply tells the web browser to launch your realmedia player and then points the player to the actual location of the .ra file itself. You can download the .ram file (right click as "save as") and then open it with Notepad, that will tell you the location of the .ra file itself. As far as burning it to CD, you'd have to convert the .ra file to .wav format... either the old fashioned analog way (speaker output to cassette deck or mini-disc or whatever, then back to the computer's hard drive via line input) or use a program like ra2wav that will do it digitally for you.
