Ra2Wav (http://www.2bsys.com) and WaveConvert Pro (http://www.waves.com)
can accept .ra files as input, but i don't think they can handle live
streams.  

   if you have a soundblaster live! card (either the full or value) the
drivers allow you to actually record wave output, so you could use sound
forge or whatever to do a live recording of the .ra stream into .wav,
which is pretty swell.  assuming that yr internet connection is
fast enough to handle the data stream without annoying interruptions,
rebufferings, etc.

There are so many groups now that just play the same things over and over,
and this is why i had to get rid of a lot of people in the group because
they felt that was it, they've mastered their instrument and think, "oh
well, I can play the same chord brilliantly for six minutes", which is 
ah - you should get a bleedin' machine to do that.  You know, the thing is
to play it with an inflection.
