radio capture ?

Good morning all from windy wales,its 11.05 and im on my 4th cup of tea already ,

Right to business :a work college of mine listens to the radio via his PC he has no extra hardware installed to do this, he wants to store the music to either his HDD or a CD
firstly are there any minimum system requirements to do this :ie speed of processor
secondly what hardware does he need to do this

thanks

720am here and just woke up; i can tell you there is a radio capture device; but i cant really remember right now; might of read it on Stuff or Maxim magazine (us)

 

If you want to record radio on your PC, all you really need is an Internet Connection that is connected during the show, enough space to store the show, and a piece of software such as MusicMatch Jukebox Plus. That is the only piece of software that I know of that is capable of automaticly recording radio, or anything else. I don't know how to configure it to record a stream, but It could probably be done if you messed with it enough.
