I just tried StreamRipperX (1.03) for the first time. I first played a
song from MP3.com:

http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/481/art_garfunkel1.html
then click on the broadband link. The full path for the song is:

wfL7B8KCkTbAc2iAHAouo-/The_Thread.m3u

The song began playing in iTunes. I then dragged the song from
iTunes into the "Drag'n'drop from iTunes" folder in StreamRipper,
and pushed the rip button. The song began downloading, but when
it finished, it began downloading again (I could tell by watching teh
file size information). After watching it download for the third or
fourth time, I clicked on the rip button again to stop it.

The file that I had in my folder was actually a full version, but it's
in the incomplete folder.

So, for some reason, StreamRipper never figured out it had
finished downloading the file, even though it had.
