The live video is streamed (using theora video and vorbis compressed 
audio) from two icecast servers.  Icecast has the option to record the 
stream and dump it to a file.  I have not listened to the live feeds so 
I don't know what the audio quality is like.  The issue, which I am 
currently working on,  is hosting the video content.  If people are 
interested in downloading just the audio, thats obviously something we 
could do.  If you want to discuss the details lets move the discussion 
to the tlug-admin list.
