    The major difference between most streaming audio (in RA format, the most
    popular real-time streaming media on the Web) and downloadable files is that
    with streaming audio, the host server/streamer electronically gives
    permissions as to whether or not the listener can "save" a copy locally. Of
    course, there's ways to get around it if you investigate.
