At the site the link reads wfiu_low.m3u but mplayer requires removing the 
m3u, at least when used CLI.

Radio New Zealand, performances by New Zealand groups.  The mp3 is 
enormous (maybe higher quality?).  52MB vs 3.4MB wma.  I think they only 
post one concert a month and leave it up for two months.

Many podcast links that I tried to follow require javascript or flash. You 
are supposed to use iTunes to subscribe for your iPod.  Or CLI bashpodder, 
a bash script for RSS feeds that uses wget.  It needs xsltproc to deal 
with xml.  You need three files one of which specifies what to download, 
and it updates your collection when run and keeps things sorted.

A search on 'linux podcast' found me podcasts about linux.  MP3 or OGG for 
download or streaming audio.  Distro Watch Weekly.  Catch up on the latest 
distro releases. Distro Watch link is xml, which lynx and Opera 9.5
display without formatting.  (Opera will reveal the code, which improves 
formatting, but lynx wants to download it).  xml links do not work but you 
can type them in manually.

Opera claims XML support in version 9.5 but it did not work well at this 
site.  Maybe for an older version.  Anyone want to check Firefox 1.5?
