Digital radio enables you to pause, rewind or record live radio onto
some digital memory, whether it is built-in or an SD card. The pause
plus facility means you can pause live radio, go away to answer the
phone and then re-start your listening just where you left off. Some let
you rewind the last half hour of programme if you missed part of a
conversation, or if you'd like to hear a particular song one more time.
You can even fast-forward through recorded items if you don't like a
song.
Some products allow you to press record and start recording straight away - others will start recording after you programmed it, just like your video. If you've recorded onto a memory card, you can then put the card in your portable mp3 player or other DAB radios with this facility and listen to your favourite programmes or songs again at a convenient time.
