You can record just as easily using a wireless mike... in fact, almost
no non-stationary artist on stage uses a non-wireless mike. [Hell,
even few lead guitarists are actually wired.]
The trick is, as always, to:
1) Have good equipment
2) Stay within range
3) Replace the batteries often
The issues with a wired mike are also quite numerous, because most
people don't have much experience holding the things in a proper
manner, and keeping them at the same distance throughout their talk.
Esp. if you're giving a new talk, often the last thing on your mind is
making sure you keep the mike a consistent distance from your mouth.
Not to mention the fact that the cords get everywhere and invariably
you trip over the things.
Of course, wired mikes are a good backup plan just in case the
wireless mikes decide that they want to pick up the local radio
station's tower feed.
