This is generally, but not always true. As I wrote earlier, some sites post the actual .ra file. Eg http://www.unknown.nu/mercury/, which has Orson Welles' Mercury Theatre radio plays online, both to stream (.ram) and download (.ra). Most sites these days use MP3 for that, but a few years ago .ra was the only way to go. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
