Actually, it appears that where ever you start streamripper is where the folder containing the stream rips is located. So start streamripper from a terminal in /home/userid/Desktop then the folder with the ripped files (if any) will be found in /home/userid/Desktop/myStream.com.
If you start streamripper with "streamripper -d ~/myFiles" then the directory containing the files will be located in /home/userid/myFiles. Assuming linux or similar, of course.
