compression.

satisfies me (yes it bothered me that it s not pure digital recording -
However it was surprisingly more than OK).
> Re 74min: Yes, I can record 74 minutes (as with CD), but I pay for it
$2/74min rather than $100/60min for my Rio s Flash card.

from mp3.com and other sites (re legal: it s their biz) as well as streaming
audio.

found some sites that I had some problems with. (But the software did not
stuck there, it just skipped it. I sent them email: I will update you on
this). So I was not logged all night due to tracks that were not downloaded.

easier to use and it also supports streaming audio (not only files
transfers).

D&D the RealAudio hyperlink of their daily program into the VMM and
scheduled it to be recorded onto the MD every day at 6:00AM, so by the time
I wake up I get my MD with my daily technical briefings - for me it s a
Killer App. I also tried their e-mail recordings, the audio quality is more
than OK, however the fact that I could not reply instantaneously to the
email, made not use it for this application)
