Not sure we're looking at the same page.

I just checked the link given, they are straight mp3, or at least at the first
sub pages I hit. Just right (on PC) or control (Mac) click and download the
mp3s. No ripping, just download.

In the case of Real Networks format the problem is a lot more complicated, but
one should start to useing Net Transport (PC only) to grab the ra or rm file,
then convert to mp3 using any of a number of software choices. Haven't found
any equivalent to Net Transport on the Mac yet.
