There are many radio stations via internet you can listen for free, with great content of all genres such as Dance, Rock, Pop, Jazz, etc …

If you want to record the audio of these radios can do on your PC or Mac with the help of some free programs available on the Internet.

How to Save Internet Radio on Mac OS X

On my Mac I did was download and install the first software called SoundFlow. With it you can redirect the audio channels from your Mac, or set the ambient sound of your browser that is doing the streaming of radio as a standard recording software.

Once you do, you record with Audacity, Which is another free sound editor program.

I also recommend installing the plugin Mp3 lame so you can record and save in mp3 format is more compact.

1. Download and install SoundFlow, it will create a new application called SoundFlowerBed, start to see a little flower on the top menu bar.

2. Clicking on this flower option under SoundFlow (2ch) Built-in Output.

3. Download and install Audacity. In Audacity you should go in preferences and in part to “Devices” section change the Recording for Soundflower (2ch).

4. Now just start the radio from the Internet then, click on the Audacity record button (red ball), stop when you want and then save. To save you must export to MP3, menu File -> Export.

How to Save Internet Radio on Windows

For Windows is even easier because you only need Audacity. For Windows Vista, first make sure the audio devices, right-clicking over you must click the option to show disabled devices.

After that just go in Audacity and select the input device to be the sound environment of the Pc.

Another free software that records audio streaming to the PC is called StreamRipper. But I have not tested nor can I give my opinion about this program.

DOMAINS and SUBDOMAINS

A domain is not always associated with the hosting plan that is provided from our supplier, in fact, it is quite common to hire a domain from other provider and host it with another. They are usually two separate services, so that although some include it in the same offer, it’s different concepts, since the implementation of this element involves a more complex series of operations for the supplier.

MANAGEMENT

The management of our Web hosting is a critical task that is simplified with a number of elements that many companies offer more or less success. FTP access accounts are the clear choice to upload content. Therefore, they are virtually mandatory in all services, some of which (the most expensive) can have different accounts to which several people have permission to “hang” information in the portal.

Although this element is important, it is even more so-called Control Panel, a component with the same name as the one used often in Windows Hosting and allows access to all configurable parameters of our space: email accounts and users, bases data, domain management, statistics, records in the log, changing passwords, amount of information downloaded, disk space, etc. There are several types, such as cPanel, Helm, Plesk, Ensim and DirectAdmin, and each has certain characteristics (and price, obviously) not the subject of this article.

Suffice it to say that each web hosting provider usually offers some, according to the plan chosen, and even a second owner. Having a standard tool has some benefit, for example, have backups that can be restored on another provider without much effort.

EXTRA SERVICES

Along with the traditional features that we want, there are a number of options that are enabled by default or optionally according to the plan they welcome us. These include the implementation in our portal online shops, user forums, transaction security mechanisms (essentially, using SSL), or additional scripts. Keep in mind that if we have the web hosting and support of databases and languages such as PHP (normal) are eligible for many of these services independently and without additional cost. There are numerous tools that allow us to integrate these services at our website, as PHPBB2, OsCommerce, Mambo and PHPNuke, to name just a few examples in we can have.
