I use wget to get around this problem where URL's don't work with linux

this one has more spaces than most

wget -O /home/rd/dropbox/theChristianRockPart1.wav
http://www.thechristianrock20.com/CR20shows/NewShow_WAV/The%20Christian%
20Rock%2020%20-%20081212%20-%20Part%201.wav


will put it in your dropbox with a useable label. It works here

rdcatch is a bit precious about spaces 

to get all segments write a script with 6 wget events. With luck some
wildcards will get around the date, or you can get the date included in
the download label.

Then have rdcatch cart it in time for broadcast from the dropbox have it
delete the source and you won't have a problem with 2 weeks progs in the
same dropbox.

If you want a hand with the script let me know.

Robert Jeffares
