I cannot find a way to get some mp3 files from a website.  That sounds
strange so let me set the stage:

Aside: These files are perfectly legitimate.  In fact, the provider
wants people to download them.  They are audio, not music.

1. There is a web page that displays links to the files.  The page URL
is something like:
http://www.somesite/mp3/display/0,18692,5297-41,00.html.  It is
obviously from a CMS system of some kind.

2. The above index page has links to .zip files, which I don't want.

3. The above index page has links to .mp3 files which I do want.

4. The mp3 files are stored at another URL like:
http://audio.somesite/Handheld/Books/ThisBook/Part1Chapter1.mp3.
(Unlike what is implied in my example, the mp3 filenames don't lend
themselves to easy scripting since they don't follow a consistent pattern.)

5. Attempts to view any subset of the URL in item 4 (ie
http://audio.somesite/Handheld/Books) result in 403 Forbidden.

Attempts:

'wget -r -l 1 -A.mp3 -np
http://www.somesite/mp3/display/0,18692,5297-41,00.htm' results in save
the referenced page but not any linked files.  '-l 2' same result.

'wget -r -l 1 -A.mp3 -np http://audio.somesite/Handheld/Books/ThisBook'
results in the 403 response.

I want to get all the files but I don't feel like clicking and saving
each of the 230+ mp3 file links.  Any thoughts?
