OPTIONS:

--help or -h

Print the command line syntax an option details.

-v

Print the program description and version.

-o filename

Save the results in filename. By default the basename of the requested URL is use with ``.ram'' turned into ``.ogg''.

-q n

Set the ogg quality. This is a value between 0 and 10, where 10 is the best quality/largest files, and 0 is the worst quality/smallest files. The default is 3. Note that using higher values isn't going to help very much -- real audio compression is typically pretty aggressive and the quality isn't that great.
