DRADRIENYOUELL I have not yet used iRecordMusic, I must have bought it in a MU Promo. AmbrioiaSW's WireTap Studio is the soul of simplicity for sounds I want to record; not concerned about channels, waveforms etc... I am mentioning an alternative, that's all. Adrien.

XENOPHILE Keep up the insightful reviews! Given that you don't need to try the software, I'll expect to see you submit several hundred reviews per day. Thanks.

ASH435 I just updated as prompted and now I'm getting no sound (and no recordings either, even though it goes through the motions). So no iPod content for me this week...

BUGSMAN (I KILL GERMS) Audio Hijack does all of this, and much more. I love the Mac community for its development of great freeware and shareware apps, but folks, you have to do your homework! AudioHijack is way ahead of this. Drop it, find a real niche, and then blow our socks off.

ASH435 Current version seems to work well. Multiple muted recordings seems to record fine. Macupdate says it's PPC but it is in fact a universal application. It's well worth the registration fee if you want BBC content to listen to on your iPod at your convenience. I haven't played with the scheduling yet but what would be really cool is if the software was able to automatically record certain programmes from the 'listen again' pages (when I happen to be online, rather than live). A bit like Podcasting, but without the required BBC commitment.

ASH435 This App is amazingly useful but not intuitive. When I select record for a while and select okay to everything, I can't then press play on the media player. The 'blob' goes orange... Why does a second window open yet they both indicate that recording it taking place? I tried opening multiple copies of the software but the audio streams that I recorded overlapped with each other. Sorry if I'm being dim.

PIRX Demo does not seem to be importing tune names from iTunes. Also manual input does not work. Otherwise, good idea, good concept.

ANONYMOUS I've only begun learning this app in demo mode and found skipping on the saved audio file that was not present during the recording session. I currently suspect it has to do with my choosing the LAME encoding (to avoid creating the large, albeit temporary AIFF file). Could the CPU usage claimed in the documentation be extreme enough to cause bumps in the recording proceess, though no noticable delays to my computer-use were observed? 768 MB RAM

Pick a naming convention for your app, why in the world isn't it: Your naming standards STINK! The first stupid set of numbers SHOULD be all ANYONE with half a wit would EVER need. GEEEZE....stop it already.

ANONYMOUS While I think this versioning system is a bit silly, your tone is gratuitously rude and inappropriate. Furthermore, what does this matter? I anything, your post didn't make me think about this developer's silly version numbering, but about what an ill-bred person you were.

DAN yeah man, that's just a horrible way to deal with people. Generally, if you want to be answered and get things done you should first try the courteous and respectful approach. If you start off by attacking, you make people think and behave as if they need to defend themselves from you. What was it that bothered you so much again? Software numbering systems? Save the heat for something graver.

MICHAEL iRecordMusic is easy to use by someone who doesn't want to spend much time learning how to use it and just wants to produce quality streaming audio recordings. I can do all my scheduling in iCal and then listen to all my favorite programs on my iPod. I've a loyal subscriber to two NPR stations but unfortunately miss some of my favorite programs on a regular basis... no more! Now I just need an iPod with more capacity. I have on occasion had iRecordMusic miss a scheduled recording but usually it's been due to sloppy scheduling on my part - an event I moved in iCal without re-syncing with iRecordMusic or some other blunder. I highly recommend this application. I run this on a 12" G4 Powerbook with 640MB of RAM and have a cable connection to the Internet.

CHAS_M To the fellow who said "Two words: WIRE TAP" and to the other fellow who said "Three words: Audio. Hijack. Pro.": Yes, Wiretap is free (from http://www.ambrosiasw.com) and nifty. However, it does not do what iRecordMusic does -- Wiretap records to AIFF files only, which can be quite unwieldy for long recordings. And yes, Audio Hijack Pro ($37) is in some ways niftier than iRecordMusic, but also costs considerably more -- nearly double! If a person wants a CHEAP way to easily record radio streams from a variety of sources directly into MP3 or MP4/AAC format, it seems to me that iRecordMusic is quite the viable option. There may be similar products that are even more well-suited to the purpose (I don't pretend to know every product on the market), but used in conjuction with Steam I find iRecordMusic to be an economical and sensible option, whereas Wiretap and AHP (fine products that they are) don't quite fit my needs/budget. Slamming one product to promote another seems needlessly childish to me. Oh, and BTW -- Wiretap is ONE WORD, not two. FYI.

ANONYMOUS Last time I checked, Wiretap recorded all sound coming out of your Mac, so if you were trying to record an hour-long show and your system beeps...sorry, recording ruined! Audio Hijack only records what you want. Therefore, unless they've changed, I find Wiretap to be a bit sloppy.

ANONYMOUS Though I value the product and find it a good value, I have had difficulty with iRecordMusic on a 1.6 G5. Now, I can't say that there isn't some problem with the CPU, but this difficulty has only arisen in conjuction with iRecordMusic. If I am recording several radio sessions in a row, the CPU quits and the fan turns on. Then the only thing I can do is turn the computer off at the switch. It seems that the program is more taxing than it appears. Otherwise, I am pleased with the recordings I have been able to make.

JOHN INNES Decent piece of software that listens in to radio streams and saves them into iTunes. Some of the implementation could be a bit cleaner, but an excellent way of recording BBC radio streams for later listening.
