Looks like some genius at sourceforge moved stuff to a different host, with a different dir structure.
If you go to the project pages, you see all the tarballs have been moved.

Before..
Source0:        http://download.sourceforge.net/usb-midi-fw/midisport-firmware-%{version}.tar.gz
After
Source0:        http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/usb-midi-fw/midisport-firmware/%{version}.tar.gz

sigh.
