Overview:

RadioRocker is the simple way to listen to terrestrial radio on your Mac. This isn't a streamer for internet radio, RadioRocker contains over 5,000 stations from across the United States. Choose what state and choose the station and you're off and running. RadioRocker is perfect if you want to listen to a sporting event in another state or town. For instance: if you're from Massachusetts and you miss listening to WBZ NewsRadio 1030 for all your news, simply pull up the list for Massachusetts, double-click on WBZ. All of a sudden you're listening to WBZ right on your Mac. Want to listen to a game in Pittsburgh? Select Pennsylvania as the state and choose your favorite station. Do you like the mix of a station in California, but you live in Virginia, select California as the state and choose the station. Station Website Want to go to the stations website and check out any promotions or learn more about the disc jockeys or anything. Simply click the globe next to the digital readout and you'll instantly go to that stations website. Presets Just like in your car radio, you can assign presets of your favorite stations to the 6 preset buttons in the player window. Click "Manage Preset Buttons" in the "File" menu or use Command+P. Choose which button you want to assign to the song currently playing. Instantly the preset will be set and you can customize the name of the button. Next time you launch RadioRocker just click your preset button, just like on your car stereo and you'll be listening to the station you like instantly. Recording (StreamGrabber) Want to record what you're listening to for later listening? Now you can. Whatever station or stream is playing can be recorded from that point by simply pressing the "Record Stream" button. When you're done recording click "Stop Recording" and the stream will be converted from raw audio to an MP3 file for easy transfer to an iPod, iPhone, or any other device that supports MP3. You can even start a stream, begin a recording session and then listen to a different stream while the first one is still recording. Custom Stations RadioRocker isn't just limited to the stations within. If you listen to internet radio such as TWIT Live, go to their site and get the stream URL. Choose the + sign at the bottom of the window, enter the information and that stream is as accessible as any station in the database.
