Yeah, I got that bro! My code was as follows:
MediaContent content = (MediaContent)entry.getContent();
URL docUrl = new URL(content.getUri());
byte bytes[] = new
byte[docUrl.openStream().available()];
docUrl.openStream().read(bytes);
System.out.println(new String(bytes));
The byte array was
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Moved Temporarily</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" TEXT="#000000">
<H1>Moved Temporarily</H1>
The document has moved <A HREF="
