That's certainly true, although I've really enjoyed having the WRN
podcasts, since some of the stations don't have podcasts (Voice of
Russia didn't last time I checked; I just checked Serbia and they don't
either).  Plus, I didn't mind the non-high-fidelity 16Kbit/sec MP4
files.  It's mostly spoken word, and I don't notice much difference
between the WRN podcasts and other broadcasts at a higher bitrate.  And
since I have a bandwidth cap, it's nice to have smaller files.
