Totally OT, and maybe you already know, but if you're opera buff you may
want to check the New York Times radio at www.wqxr.com .. They often
have live performances from the Met on Saturdays some time around 1:00PM
EST.  I only have an 18G HD on the laptop .. so I wouldn't know anything
about recording, though. 

Thanks,
