I found both of these precompiled for DOS and even libc5. I used
(once) whatever came with DOS cdroast, and also cd2wav in DOS, but
I could not find any way to write .wav files to a CD in DOS.

I wonder if there's a DOS cdrecord floating around somewhere?

There is, and it would not work on the CD-ROM burner which did not work with linux cdrecord. Apart from that it was easy to setup and worked fine for copying CDs. It is based on an older version (pre kernel 2.6 linux).


BTW: Sindi, I doubt that most MP3 players will do a good job on
streaming MP3s over a dial-up link. The one exception may be
Realplayer, which IS able to buffer the stream. And this really
amounts to a download and THEN play routine, anyway.

I haven't had any troubles with mpg123. As long as you don't outplay
your bandwidth, you should be fine.

Does it actually buffer somehow?

Would Mplayer buffer realaudio as well as Realplayer?

If you can get a Realaudio stream, yes. Buffering is not that complex.

Realaudio
streams are inherently choppy from most stations.

Then you'd basically need to download first, then play.

With Realplayer it buffers for a minute ahead of the stream, then starts to play, and there is much less choppiness. I have watched the graph of the stream and some stations are nearly level and some are roller coasters.
