one of my favorite Windows programs

 It is Screamer Radio v0.4.4

 

  It's an internet radio Windows program with a built in record capability.   It seems to still be available:

Why I like it:  the recording feature is nice.   Let's say you are listening to a show for a while and they play something that you'd like to have a copy of.  With Screamer Radio you can just hit the record and it will go back into the memory banks and get the last hunk of stream (Screamer is always buffering) and put it into a file.  This doesn't always work perfectly, it keys on the title that the streamer sends out.  When the title (I may not be using the correct term but you get the idea) sent out by the streamer changes (or doesn't change) then the recording  kerchunks out the old titled file and starts a new file.  It's all done automagically and works pretty well.

Other good things about Screamer Radio v0.4.4":  free, small, fast startup (bloatware always takes time to get going) and I find it easy to use.

And there are nice touches like being able to manually edit the favorites with notepad.  Or a menu pulldown that will open the recording file folder.

The bad thing:  not all streaming stations still use the older streaming formats that Screamer Radio understands.  But I only listen to a few stations:

Radio Swiss Classic (unless it's opera ;)    http://stream.srg-ssr.ch/m/rsc_de/mp3_128
Yesterday USA Red                http://streaming.radio.co:80/sf5708c004/listen
Yesterday USA Blue                http://streaming.radio.co:80/sa37b728bf/listen

But there are still quite a few other stations.

I really like to listen to Radio Swiss Classic while programming, there aren't any commercials, they do announce the selections but it's done in German so I don't pay attention :)
