I have been using Total Recorder since either 22008 or 2009; the only thing I know of that would make it even better for me is if there were some way (and maybe there is and I don't know about it) but if I could record an audio stream and still use my screen reading software (in my case, that screen reader would be Jaws 16) now I am using the standard version of TR; have never been clear if I went to the "pro" version if I could then record and still do things like listen and type emails and such or not! This is one of the neat things I like about Tapin Radio; you can do whatever you want with your computer and it won't mess up your recording as Tapin Radio records _directly_ from the internet!

I haven't been using Total Recorder a lot mainly due to the reasons I outlined in the first eMail of this discussion but there is still nothing that equals the recording power of the Total Recorder software package under Windows to my knowledge. I've been using Total Recorder since early 2003 - I started using it when the swecond Gulf war started - and the software has never let me down and has produced very good recordings which is more than I can say for some of the more expensive pieces of software which do two things obviously, promise so much but deliver so little and take an eternity to actually get the recording started.
