Uma tecnologia interessante (e convergente)

Como juntar o FM com o computador? Este sistema grava e guarda tudo o que ouve no FM para o computador!

«Snaptune, Inc. has released Snaptune™ One, a new software product that ‘downloads’ complete songs, talk shows, interviews and live sessions directly from FM radio to a PC.

Snaptune One records, isolates, and identifies complete songs, talk shows and other interesting segments automatically.

Users pick their favorite local radio stations from a list for their location, and Snaptune does the rest. Snaptune One displays a list of the songs playing on the radio as it finds them. Users can sort them, play them, write them, burn them, or transfer them to an iPod or other media player.

Snaptune uses pattern-matching techniques to find songs without any reference to play lists or other external data allowing it to work on almost any radio station.

Snaptune One can podcast directly across a home network to iTunes on a user’s laptop and from there onto an iPod. »
