One way to do it would be to run jack as a sound daemon, then use the
jackified version of ices to make the stream, and have a script which
kicks off a recording session using ecasound every 30 minutes.

But if you're happy to record the sessions at the same bitrate you're
streaming at, the other poster's solution with wget might be better.
