SRS, any of the suggested programs will do exactly what you're after.

RM Recorder works for what I do. It has the advantage that it'll rip the entire streamed file as fast/slow as your link can manage, so you don't get varying sound quality depending on your link. It typically takes me 15 minutes to rip a 1-hour BBC stream.

The downside is that RM Recorder it only works on streams in single files, such as the BBC's "listen again" streams. For streams coming off broadcast, it doesn't seem to work. I guess then you'll be better with something that just records what's going to your speakers.

Also note that if you use RM Recorder then you'll need to export the results to MP3 or WAV if you want to do anything with them (like put them on a CD or an MP3 player). I use a converter by a company called Boilsoft, which does a high-quality conversion from RM files to MP3.
