Wow! I didn't know anybody offered webcam feeds like that. And yeah, it looks like it would be possible to pull all the webcam links right off of their XML. On the other hand, they've got a lot of terms and conditions...

And there are some requirements that I doubt I can meet, such as:

Distribution
Developers consuming TfL data and providing public services built on it are expected to provide the hosting capacity necessary to serve those public consumers. You should take our data and proxy it, you shouldn’t allow all your clients to hit our service driectly. This is intended to reduce TfL’s cost liability for hosting and content delivery.
