Call It Tivo for Radio

I dowloaded a cool program yesterday. It allows me to record internet radio/audio to MP3 and even puts it in my ITunes. From this, I will enrich the audioblogosphere.

Since so much of the good new music is played on some radio show somewhere we don't live, we need this.

Beware - the quality is not great or even good. I have never placed my highest regards for quality. I was that kid back on rec.music.hip-hop who'd trade and sell Chicago hip-hop radio dubs. At the time Chicago's vast underground rap was unheard and underappreciated. I wanted my internet-friends to feel the flavor.

Today, we are at a unique moment. Not quite to perfect quality internet radio but still at least legal.

So I present to the world outstanding new music from BBC Radio 1, 1Xtra, Higher Ground Radio, Jazzanova Radio, KCRW and misc. others.
