Radio Has Finally Left The Building!

Just when you think that the world of technology was about to get maxed out, there is another log thrown onto the fire!

There is a service that supposedly works as close to TiVo as possible, but instead of recording television programs it records radio broadcasts from around the world.

RadioTime is a cool service if you normally listen to various radio stations on the internet.

It takes the internet radio to another level in going offline.

Since MP3 files can be burned onto a CD or saved within an iPod, RadioTime is just what the doctor ordered for anyone who has had enough of local radio killing time and brain cells.

I searched through the database and it appeared as if many of the worldwide radio stations also appear within the Microsoft Media Player roster of stations.

Choose your favorite genre and it's there. Choose your city or country, and it is there.

There is another website that lists television broadcasts available through the internet.

But since RadioTime frees you from being a couch potato, it is probably one of the better services around.

There is a cost, but it does cost less than the satellite radio services at $39 per year.
