Hi
I'm a great radio fan. I do a lot of "listen again" particularly of radio 7 via the web (and just descovered the iplayer too).
I wuld really like to record radi into a format to pop on an MP3 player (I hae a nano but could put it on the generic player on my nokia phone).
I can record through the media centre on the PC but that is a TV recorder and so the file sare huge and in an odd format.
I did have "replay radio" but the format I have is too old for XP and the files on that were huge, and it had a couple of clay feet- recording "listen again" could, for instance only be done in real time- by playing the file, and being around at the end to stop the recording as well!
THanks!

If you find yourself in a fair fight, then you have failed to plan properly
I've only ever been wrong once! and that was when I thought I was wrong but I was right0 -
Not done this lately but used a program called offline explorer from meta products I think, HERE0

same problem with recording "listen again" but you can easily trim it to length & then convert it to MP30
