Just be aware timing is often out on RNZ. If you are setting up to
record, I'd record all the way thorough from 8-9.

In fact I think I'll just set mythtv to record the whole show from 8-12.

Also available as a podcast of course.

The downloadable streams are often poor quality though.

There are Microsoft media and mp3 streams.
A high quality one available to those who are able to access the NZ
Internet peering exchanges, a middle quality one from a server in
California, and a very low quality - 1950s telephone - 'backup' one
served out of Wellington.

kaffeine plays the streams, and Amarok the podcasts, both perfectly on
the Hardy Heron.

There are doubtless GNOME equivalents, but I know not what they are.

totem-mozilla allows the mp3s to be played directly within Firefox. Failing that, Totem or Mplayer will play the mp3s from a URL.

The mp3 that I checked is mono, 48kbps.
