For those familiar with Replay AV, how comprehensive is the database of actual shows on radio stations? One thing I really like about Radio Time and RedButton is that the database of shows on each radio station is quite complete.
This was certainly not a formal comparison but in looking up a few stations I listen to/record in Red Button on Replay AV, the station listings only listed a few shows from the daily schedules. The missing shows were not network programming but rather local shows that just seemed absent.

I found the Replay A/V feedback process to be cumbersome but certainly not unusable. the one time I reported some alteration to their database, i believe they fixed it pretty quickly. Now, regarding RedButton, does it record via the sound card, or, like Replay A/V, does it directly capture the stream? thanks.
