Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This perfectly compact program sports an easy-to-use interface and makes recording audio from a PC a breeze. RecordAnything is true to its name, allowing you to record any song, conversation, or other noise that travels through your sound card. To start or stop recording, you simply click a program button conveniently located in the program tray. You can either manipulate recording levels or let the program ably deal with the details for you. Other settings include audio channel, recording volume, and MP3 quality. We were especially impressed that RecordAnything supports VBR (variable bit rate) files. When saving files, you are required to both name and edit MP3 tags manually. Overall, this is a great program for audiophiles who want to capture all their favorite Net radio tunes or memorable conversations on "tape."Publisher's description

Version: Record-Anything 2.95
"To all other record what you hear program pushers: SHAME...SHAME...SHAME!"
Pros: First off...it is the only program that allows 80min of trial recording with no 30sec cap on individual recordings. Very smart and confident move. Once you try it you'll buy it. Record at up to 320bps quality. User friendly. One of the few that stays the _ _ _ _ out of your way in the system tray with one click start/stop record. When you stop {finish} a recording, a window automatically pops up asking what you want to title it and the location where you want to keep it. My guess is the person who developed this program has tried to record {what you hear} on a personal level. Didn't think I would live that long.
Cons: No cons. Too positive for you? Ok...nothings perfect...IT ISN'T FREE! Is that better?

"Works only from tray. Few options. Useless"
Cons: Seemed to work only from the tray. No easy interface. Very few options. Uninstall tried to load a web page, which should never be required in my opinion

Version: Record-Anything 2.95
"simple and effective to record streaming internet radio"
Pros: Ease of installation. System tray icon for instant recording and stopping of music being played. Fairly simple to save recorded file for listening to later on the computer. Test version let me copy more than 30 sec (mine was about 4 minutes).
Cons: None that I've found yet.
Summary: THere is a system tray icon for instant access for recording (click it once to start recording; click it twice to open up the setting configuration). I changed the input channel to "what u hear" and saved the setting. I was able to instantly start... read more >>

Version: Record-Anything 2.95
Cons: First of all, I downloaded and installed this disaster and it crashed my computer; it took three days to restore it. After stabilizing my comp, with much trepidation I tried the program again, not only didn't it work but now it wanted me to pay for using it. THEY'RE NOT GETTING ONE RED CENT!
