This will turn it into a wav.

mplayer -ao pcm
rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/radio4/comedy/wed1830.ra?BBC-UID=74c730f7550a8873903ce8ec5010a2821b6394337010d0730b1a25eedeb89e7d_n

I'll let you work out the rest.

Check "mplayer -ao help" first, you might be able to do it in one step
depending on what was built into mplayer.

I bet for a tenner it doesn't do OGGs? Freedom haters ;)

 Simon, who needs to make mplayer the default for RAM in Firefox, stop
the "Helix doesn't do Real Media" stuff....
