rpm -qi streamripper output contains: Description : streamripper records shoutcast compatible and live365 streams. For shoutcast style streams it finds the "meta data" or track separation data, and uses that as a marker for where the track should be separated. For live365 streams it hits the website and finds when a track has changed. Either way, the MP3 data will be decoded and scanned for a silent point which is where tracks will be created.
BUT, from /usr/share/doc/streamripper-1.32/CHANGES Changes in 1.0.3~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* Removed live365 ripping (legal reasons) (Which explains why I couldn't record any live365 streams...)
