PHP example for Cloud Storage

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I understand that the Prediction API is the closest example available for the 
Cloud Storage API as it provides a service account example.

Authenticating and displaying buckets/objects in then fairly easy but I do feel 
though that the documentation is lacking an example of how to 'download' a file 
that is in cloud storage to a local directory.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.6.4

Please provide any additional information below.
There are examples in other languages that do similar things I would like to do 
below but I can't see equivalent functions in PHP for this

I should probably add that I can see the "selfLink" value in response body when 
calling storage.object.get but I don' know where to pass this in order to 
initiate an authenticated download

I have found that something like this works

    $request = new Google_HttpRequest($download_url, 'GET');
    $httpRequest = $this->client->getIo()->authenticatedRequest($request);
    echo $httpRequest->getResponseBody();

But instead of using the selfLink URL (which uses the domain 
www.googleapis.com) from the response I get from the Cloud Storage API I had to 
create the same selfLink URL but from the domain storage.googleapis.com. (e.g. 
storage.googleapis.com/<bucket>/<object>)

Can you explain if this behaviour is intended and why the API returns a URL 
that I can't download the file from?
