A little research
Feb 27, 2006 12:45PM PST

I started poking around the rss feeds. Here are two snippets from theenclosure tags from the RSS feed. The top one works the bottom one does not.

Looks like the only real diference is a change to server in which the mp3's are coming from.

http://www.cnet.com/i/pod/cnetbuzz_011706.mp3
http://cdn2.cnet.com/i/pod/cnetbuzz_022706.mp3

However, I can download the file just fine directly from the browser, and I assume out itunes friends are not having any problems, it just doesn't work in doppler. Must be something funny going on their between doppler and the other server.

changed

I've updated the XML with the old tracking system.

You may get double files from Friday and Monday. Just delete them, they're the same! Sorry for the confusion, I guess it didn't work the way we planned.
