How can I record an iTunes radio stream?

I'm looking for a free software solution. Windows or OS X.

Thanks.

Audacity should work well for that.

I suspect that Replay Media Catcher would work, but I have not used it myself.

Drat, Replay Media Catcher is not free. Sorry for not reading carefully.

Not quite freeware, but the unregistered version of RadioLover will do 30 minutes at a time and splits and labels each song as they stream. The BEST tool for the job, hands down.

You could use Soundflower, which is free.

mplayer is the best solution, if you're comfortable with the command line

Streamripper, which I linked to above, runs on *nix, OS X, and Windows. While streamripper is a command line tool, there are also a couple Windows frontends available, StationRipper and SimpleRipper. I have not used either of these GUIs, so I cannot recommend one over the other, but both are actively supported and work with the current version of streamripper.
