Radiotracker alternative: record radio on Mac & Windows.
For years Radiotracker was the best-known program for recording music from internet radio. Today it is no longer sold on its own: it lives on as “Audials Radio” inside the Audials One suite – which runs on Windows only. If you just want to record radio, or you use a Mac, you need a leaner tool. StreamWriter Studio is exactly that: a dedicated radio recorder, native on Mac and Windows, that saves every song as its own file – with artist, title and real album artwork.
