I have the problem again now after the latest update... I suspect that 
what's really happening is the upload to the www-ccrma server is failing.

I have checked this by running the download in two different countries 
(South Africa and USA), both using a local wget with no proxies/caches
ls -l and md5sum give the same result:
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       279077 Mar  3 03:28 srclist.planetccrma

This is on 
http://www-ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/apt/fedora/1/i386/base/srclist.planetccrma

So it looks to me like there is a problem with that file.
If anyone has it working from this or another mirror could they post an 
md5sum of that file and state the URL?

Do the mirrors mirror directly from www-ccrma or do they have another 
source? What is the delay?
http://planetccrma.atrpms.net/apt/fedora/1/i386/base/srclist.planetccrma 
gives me the following:
-rw-rw-r--    1 davidf   davidf     242959 Feb 24 19:15 srclist.planetccrma
0d40a046701e6680799bccdb3acf4a33  srclist.planetccrma
Which seems to be older than www-planetccrma's copy...
