http://rg42.org/gitweb/?p=scripts.git;a=blob_plain;f=lau_soundfonts.php

is a simple PHP script that gets the list from the wiki, and queries the
file-size of each of the links.. I've used it to detect dead-links.

Anyway it should be easy enough to extend it to download the stuff as
well. Detecting the file-format and calling unzip or tar and sorting
them into subfolders is left as an exercise..
