I should add that I've had great success with a real audio encoder
running in batch mode, for making permanent recordings to the hard
drive. The virtue over MP3 is size. At 8kbs the Real Audio encoding
is fine for voice and takes 4mb/hr, which is very tiny as these things
go. I have ``real encoder 5.0.1'' free from the real audio site,
probably well hidden and replaced by a subsequent product.

My HD is full of audio clips.
