Version: Skado 1.0.6.103
Pros: I'm addicted to BBC radio. They offer streaming audio for most shows not available via podcast. Still, it's nice to be able to snag that audio stream and load it on my iPod. This product allows me to do just that.
Best of all: it has a timer!! Just give Skado the URL of the streaming audio you want to record and tell it what time to launch your browser and how long to run. Yes, I was wary, too, when I first read that, but it worked seamlessly!
Download the trial version and give it a whirl. You won't be disappointed.
Cons: Interface can be clunky, but by *no means* a deal breaker.

"Really Cool way to save and record music!"
Pros: I listen to Yahoos Launch Cast Radio all the time and now have a way of saving off music that I like. It is really amazing how well this program works with this music website. Skado starts and stops the recordings perfectly. Now I can listen to music I have saved using Skado when I am traveling or on a place. It's totally awesome.

Version: Skado 1.0.6.103
Pros: Price and basic funcitonality - it gets the job done. Better than the others I looked at. Although, I have not been really impressed by any of them. Help is better than most.
Cons: Split function has issues: very very very slow, trim silence does not work. When manually split a track, it seems to split about 1 minute earlier than where I selected. No option to just stop recording after a certain amount of time that is longer than 6 seconds. Track splitting silence maximum is 6 seconds. The "File Manager" is so basic it should really be called a "File List". No multiple track functions. No filters for noise, hiss, etc... I can think of dozens of little improvements that would make this a great product rather than just a mediocre one.

"Great tool for mic recording"
Summary: Was looking for a utility to capture microphone input to MP3. Skado fits the bill perfectly (plus it does a lot more than that). Unlike other tools, Skado doesn't have a 30 second or 60 second limit for mic recording. I recorded a 70 minute sessio... read more
