An example would be nice.

OK, let's concentrate on that first.

Here's a podcast that fails to download - the error message inthe Download window is simply "Failed: Error downloading http://stitcher.acast.com/..........".

However, the original URL is "http://open.live.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/6/redir/version/2.0/mediaset/audio-nondrm-download-low/proto/http/vpid/p0858555.mp3" - so there's some redirecting happening.
(source: https://podcasts.files.bbci.co.uk/p02nq0gn.rss)

The log says:

Code:

So yeah, I can clearly see the server reply: Forbidden.

Trying the same with wget:

Code:

So wget manages to follow the redirects without getting thrown out.

I compared the last two links, they are similar but not identical; I guess the server generates new access tokens for each request. But why is wget allowed to download in the end, and cutenews isn't?

BTW, this isn't a one-off, I constantly download podcasts from this particular feed with wget because they constantly fail with cutenews.
