I use a script based on one which was I found through the thread you
mention.
It's on
http://squat.homelinux.net/recmp3.sh
It uses vsound, sox, lame and realplayer to capture the stream as a wav,
then convert to mp3. I've added some tweaks of my own - I record a lot
of bbc7 listenagain streams, and sometimes found the stream ended early,
so I added a loop to check the length and re-record if too short. It
defaults to 32kb encoding at 11.025khz - too low for music but fine for
the spoken word, which is what I record.
