    I've got a prototype program called Radio Recorder which lets you
specify times to record from the microphone or DSP for playback later.  I just
leave my radio connected and it records the NPR programs I want to hear later.

    I'm trying to decide what to do with the program.  If there is
sufficient interest I could finish it and sell it, but I'm not sure how many
people have an extra 55 Meg or more on their hard drive for recording a couple
hours worth of material.
    My real hope is that there is some company or organization that needs
to monitor the radio or audio of TV or any other sampled data that they want
to monitor for certain periods.  There are many ways I could make the
prototype more powerful, like having it work over a network, having recordings
indexed to real time, and controlling radios through the serial ports.
    I also have a design but no prototype for an application that would
let you play back huge sounds easily and let you fast forward and reverse and
skip ahead and back while listening so you can skip commercials or whatever.
    I'd be happy to work under contract or work on spec for a negotiated
product price.  I'm open to suggestions and available!  (Not enough contract
work for NeXTs here in Columbus,OH)
