streamripper is still active.  "yum list streamripper" is your friend.

The problem is that these sort of audio streams play with a flash player
and you must intercept the feed with something that is capable of
playing a flash stream.  I don't believe that streamripper can do that.
But mplayer appears to be able to. :)

See Sam's reply for more details on the whole process.
