How to record from radio.

...

My son (11) wants to know how to record from a radio station.
.. . .
I know how to record CD's (Easy CD Creator); I can get the radio
stations direct from their url (can't figure out how to get them in
media player). But I cannot figure how to marry the two.

1. Select your audio control software. (I use
Audio Cleaner by Magix.DE.) The Windows
recording module is limited to 60 seconds max.
2. Select audio player software compatible
with both audio control software and what
the radio stations transmit. RealPlayer
seems to be the commonest (for RAM files,
saved by Audio Cleaner as WAV files.)

My son (11) wants to know how to record from a radio station.
Says the kids at school do it -- say it's easy. But don't say how
in terms comprehensible to him/me/us.

I know how to record CD's (Easy CD Creator); I can get the radio
stations direct from their url (can't figure out how to get them in
media player). But I cannot figure how to marry the two.

Am I missing a piece of software? Am I missing something simple and
obvious? Or is this mission impossible?

Any help much appreciated.

This is a very simple program which I use all the time. It's not free
but it's very good.

I wonder if that program is similar to Total Recorder, which also records in
real time. Anybody happen to know the difference?

Hi dadiOH! I didn't know you were in here too, or else I forgot.
How does this program compare to Total Recorder, if you happen to know?

Main difference is it's free.

Free, but probably more limited, I'd guess. Haven't used Total Recorder
recently, but it came in handy awhile ago. I don't think it was very
expensive, though.
