Yes, as long as you want to download only a few URLs. In my
experience it is much faster (albeit more complicated) to call
Netscape since it can do multiple simultaneous connections.

I am using a short script to automatically download 80 to 100 pages
of a German newspaper every morning. It's not very well commented,
but works very well, for about a year now and should be good enough
for a starter. Interested parties mail me off-list.
