Recording DirectTV Christmas Music to CDR?!?

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a somewhat easy way to record the seasonal
music from Dish TV
to CDR. I'd like to listen to the music in my car while commuting to
work.
Once I record the music to VCR what are the next steps please?

Thanks in advance

A VCR is merely a tape recorder. Connect its audio output to the PC's line
unput and follow the suggestions at

Take the "line/audio out" from the VCR (or directly from the Dish TV
Receiver) into the "line in" of your PC audio card. Record them with
a wave recorder program such as Nero, and save them as ".wav" files.
Then compile the list of wave files in the CD-Recording software
(example: Nero) and record your CD.
It is quite simple.

You can also record directly to MP3, then burn from that to save HD
space. If DTV music has gaps between the songs, many recorders will
auto-split them.

I'm fond of Audiograbber (http://www.audiograbber.com-us.net/), which
has autosplit, external MP3 encoder links, and a timed recording mode
for recording specials to MP3 while you're away. Free d/l to try it
out, and only $20 to register. Great software from good folks!

Thank you so much Graham, Tommy and Neil.

I am going to make the tapes today and follow the transfer steps you
all have given me asap.
I appreciate you all taking time out to help. Sounds like something I
can handle ok.

Happy Holidays to you all.
