 *'''Transcoding is evil!''' Do never record a set broadcasted in 192kbps and transcode it to another bitrate, for example 256kbps or 320kbps! You do not get a higher quality with that, you only 'nuked' the broadcast and got low quality crap - despite having a much higher bitrate than before!

This is just evil as this involves transcoding (internet MP3 stream --> the audio player plays it --> recording program --> encoding to MP3). This automatically disallows any recordings from streaming webplayers (such as Realplayer, WindowsMediaPlayer, Flashplayer) in general and also completely disallows so-called 'MP3-recorders'.

 For proper internet recordings (digital stream rips) you will need only two programs:
 *[http://www.winamp.com the newest Winamp] and

 Follow the two links to get the two programs, then install them. Configure Winamp to always start the streamripper plugin together with the main Winamp program.

 That's it more or less, other Winamp or Streamripper configuration options are not really important. Now you are set to rip your first internet radio stream. You can rip and record in almost any streaming format that Winamp can pull and play (MP3, OGG, AAC+). For streamripper there is no difference, it saves all the files of different formats to disk without problems.
