TSGL: Pandora .. streaming music

[Trio800_BonBon]

Yes I can record Pandora but need to catch the start.

I like Pandora better then screamer because you can set 
up your own "stations" and thus be more selective as to 
what its playing. Screamer is just a radio station 
streamer. I also find it more difficult to find 
stations that I like. I like big band and there isn't a 
genre listing for that. Closest is jazz but you wind up 
with various actual jazz stations rather then big bands

I'm currently using HardDisk Ogg to record Pandora, 
mainly because it has a "scissor" icon that, when 
pressed will save the current recording and 
automatically start a new file.

Problems:

I don't want to record all the songs, only ones that I 
like. You have to listen for the silence between songs, 
press the scissor icon, and if the song is one that I 
don't want or have already recorded, you have to stop 
the recording, delete it and start recording again at 
the next silence.  Then repeat the above.

I've tried recording, say 15 minutes at a time and 
splitting the songs using an audio editor, deleting the 
ones I don't want -- but that's a tedious task.

With screamer, if you hear a song you want after it 
started playing it will record from the beginning of 
the song.

That's MUCH easier then the current method I'm using.
