A recording circuit records an encoded digital stream corresponding to a program signal onto a storage unit starting at a start recording time. The program signal is received by a receiver and corresponds to an audio program.
Claims64
An apparatus comprising:
- a recording circuit to record an encoded digital stream corresponding to a program signal onto a storage unit starting at a start recording time, the program signal being received by a receiver and corresponding to an audio program.
An apparatus comprising:
- a storage unit to store an encoded digital stream corresponding to an audio program signal;
- and
- a playback circuit coupled to the storage unit to play back the encoded digital stream.
A method comprising:
- recording an encoded digital stream corresponding to a program signal onto a storage unit starting at a start recording time, the program signal being received by a receiver and corresponding to an audio program.
A method comprising:
- storing an encoded digital stream corresponding to an audio program signal in a storage unit;
- and
- playing back the encoded digital stream.
An article of manufacture comprising:
- a machine-accessible medium including data that, when accessed by a machine, causes the machine to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a program signal from a first radio receiver that receives a first radio broadcast program;
- and
- recording an encoded digital stream corresponding to the program signal onto a storage unit starting at a start recording time.
