[Swprograms] Radio how and when you want it



Right, well, there's something that sort of does this already isn't there? Anyway sounds as if it might be very useful if it works with a screen reader.
 
RADIO WHEN AND HOW YOU WANT IT
      A company called Griffin Technology has introduced radioShark, a device that does for radio what TiVo does for television: allowing a user to pause, rewind or fast-forward live programming, and of course store it as well. Technology analyst Walter Mossberg of the Wall Street Journal writes: "Overall, we found the radioShark to be a good idea, but it lacks some of TiVo's smart features. Because it doesn't have program schedules like TiVo does, you can't look through a list of upcoming radio shows to learn what will be on when, what specific song will be played, or which talk-radio topic will be discussed. By contrast, TiVo's schedule grid makes it a cinch to plan your recordings ahead of time... If radioShark were smarter, it could be a sensation. For now, though, it's more of a curiosity, or a tool for radio enthusiasts with a good sense of station schedules and time to invest." (Wall Street Journal 6 Oct 2004)
