Abstract

We have disclosed an enhanced radio system that provides for the capture and playback of one or more radio stations. The user may tune to a station, or scan through stations, rewind to hear what was missed, and fast-forward through undesired content. The system allows a user to rate content, and to be notified when that content is being played on any station. The system may ma ke radio station recommendations. The system allows the user to respond easily to radio content, download audio content, and send radio content to another use r. The system may provide other radio related and radio content related information. The system may provide a karaoke mode. The system may also allo w the user to integrate a telephone with the radio. The system may report usag e information to a collection facilty.
