hmm... will the vpro broadcast have a higher bitrate than uwlive? That could take the pressure away from the uwlive server if they are going to broadcast in 96 kbit/s.
For recording i will use streamripper-win32-1.61.19 with the following commandline:
streamripper.exe URL -a -A -o never -t -r 5555
That will write to a single mp3 with cue sheet (so no gaps), doesn't overwrite any files in any case and would automatically reconnect (so no heart attacks when the server goes down

) and set up a relay server on port 5555 so i can listen to it while recording and not use another slot.
(Will i actually use
2 slots when recording
and listening without using a relay server?)
ohhh... i'm so excited!
