FYI. From one of the principals in the AR IBWO search. I wonder who the "unconvinced" are since the NYT article represented Prum and Robbins as "strongly convinced" and "absolutely stunned", respectively.

It is premature to assume that they are recordings of IBWOs as reported in the press, as that conclusion has not been reached by everyone involved. There will be a presentation on the results (to date) of the acoustic data given by Russ Charif of Cornell at the AOU meeting in late August. As of now, none of the recordings are available to the public. -- M. David Luneau, Jr., P.E. Assoc.

Are they not available for the general public or would it have to be purchased? (Or is there a dispute over authenticity?)
