[peel] Tom R & Recording iPlayer Radio

[John Gray]

I used to use this and found it easy to use and invaluable.  However I now have a Mac, and it is not Mac compatible.  I have switched to Audio Hijack, available from Rogue Amoeba - similarly easy to use, will record anything playing on your computer.  Not sure if it is available for PC also.

I find Total Recorder ( http://www.highcriteria.com ) wonderful for this kind of recording.  The standard edition is $17 and does most things well enough.  I actually used it to capture all Tom's shows for Channel 4 radio.
Total Recorder Standard Edition records streaming audio, mic and line-in input, and performs audio file conversions. Total Recorder may be used to record LPs, cassettes or any stereo output onto your PC. Total Recorder also allows you to record CDs or DVDs.
Total Recorder Professional Edition retains all of the recording features of the Standard Edition, plus adds extended features for serious recording enthusiasts.
Total Recorder VideoPro Edition is designed for users that want to play, record, and edit video files in AVI, WMV or FLV format. You can capture video from your screen, record from a video device plugged into your computer, such as DV camera, web camera, TV-tuner or DVD player, or background record Internet video streams in WMV format.

In particular, I thought last Friday's show to be quite wonderful - the first night nerves were gone and the music selection just stunningly good. Really the best thing I've heard since Peel - my notebook is full of things to investigate.
