| Recording music from FM Radio all i got to say how it download a mp3 any different from recoding a song off the radio, expecialy when i pay my isp, with is a cable co, that has to pay royalties anyhow for there 40+ music stations that play music on my tv? I dont, and i can record the music from that just as easily? What i'm trying to say is some where along the line i belive we paid a copyright somewhere to a song rather we realize it or not. Like the advertising pays for the radio obviosly, so why cant the RIAA open a Add driven comunity with mp3's. I belive ppl will still buy the cd's to music they like in some way, and it makes the artist more well known to sell concerts. But deep down i realy dont care, cause carma is a bitch and the RIAA/MPAA deserves what ever they will end up getting. | |
3 edits | The sound quality from FM radio is pretty lousy. The fact is you can do much better than recording normal FM radio: You can record the CD quality digital version that is being sent along with the standard analog FM signals now! The digital version is called HD Radio and the sound quality is unbelievable. All you need is a specific type of HD Radio receiver and HD RadioPC software. The software interfaces a windows PC to the receiver, and automatically records the songs as individual high bitrate mp3 files.
The resulting mp3's sound much better than the lower bitrate mp3's you can find for purchase at iTunes.
HD Radio is free; no subscription required, and since it is a radio broadcast using our public airwaves, it is perfectly legal to record it for private use.
The sad reality is that even if you provide the public with a way to legally obtain all the free high quality song files they could ever desire, most will still prefer illegal options. I guess there is nothing "kewl" about actually obeying laws now days. | |
