Hi Paul, There is a list called PC Audio which might answer some of your internet recording queries! I was a list member once but at the time found it a little advanced for me!! Worth a try! You could try a Google for the exact subscribe address, and should your search not work out for you I am sure I have it "buried" somewhere!!
