If you have Firefox, you can get an add-on called 'Download Helper' that lets you save audio files or videos such as what's on YouTube. You can then convert them to Windows Media files and put them on CDs or DVDs. It's free, although unless you register, you get a little icon on a not terribly annoying place on the window. In Firefox: Tools/add ons/get add ons. |

15 Oct 09 - 09:50 PM (#2747120) Subject: RE: Tech: downloading radio From: M.Ted You should probably know about Vuze as well--tons of streams, downloads, and a search engine. You use it to find and download TV programs, as well. It does have ads, though, and you have to be careful, because there is a great tendency to download a lot of stuff you're never going to even use, and it is really easy to fill up a hard drive-- |

18 Oct 09 - 02:32 PM (#2747329) Subject: RE: Tech: downloading radio From: Bill D Just to add... there are several 'radio' applications for Windows that allow you to listen to streaming broadcasts, and optionally, save what you hear. Screamer is a free one Raima is not free, but does a LOT (It originally was...I still have the older, free version) Nexus if free, bur requires registration (It also says it searches for songs, as well as playing stations Iradio is also free but gives you a toolbar to get to radio stations. There may be more by now. I use Screamer the most. |

It is a simple way to capture things like police and fire dispatches and phone conversations....anything through the speakers.

I haven't found a recording or sound editing job it can't do - and it does a great job of it. -Joe- |
