Host the NHK Show ID list out on archive.org or similar permanent site.

Since the shows offered by NHK are continually changing, it would be nice to have a web host for what is currently just a text file sitting in the root of the repo.

That would allow two things:

Easier updating via script (No need to git push a new list to the repo)
Easier persusing by users (Just use a web browser)

Since any site I own may not withstand the test of time, using something like archive.org as a webhost would be preferable.

The current method of generating the NHKShowlist file is a python script launched via cronjob that reads and updates a text document. In the future, we should add a step that utilizes the internetarchive python library to upload the document out into the public cloud
