I want to read the playlist from local public radio station.
My first attempt to use urllib got an error:
This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.

Help please.  The code and response follow.

import urllib
url = "http://cpr.org/playlist/?%s"
params = urllib.urlencode({'Frames':1})
ff = urllib.urlopen(url % params)
zz = ff.read()
print zz
