This is Radio TiVo

John Robb asks if there is a TiVo-like device for radio. I've mentioned this to a few friends as something I would love to have as a standard feature in radios. So often in the car I'll half hear something that sounds kind of interesting and I'd love to be able to just hit a button and pause the radio, then back up a few seconds to start listening. Now that I think about it, I'd love to tell it to record certain shows when I'm not in the car. I'd love to be able to always have the latest Car Talk, Wait Wait Don't Tell me, or Says You waiting for me to listen to. That would be so cool. On the plus side, I just discovered that you can listen to Wait Wait and Car Talk online.
