I think you do need an mp3 player to start streaming (media player, or musicmatch jukebox etc). Once you have stremed whatever you want tho, I believe you can save it permenantly.

When it is streaming, i think it is saved as a temporary file on your hard drive, I can't remember where tho. SO once you have finished listening, but before you close down whatever you are listening to it on (I am assuming that you at least have windows media player on your machine), before you close your mp3 player, do a search for recent temp files, find the one that is an obvious candidate, then rename it as "whatever".mp3 I have done this in the past for single songs that have been streamed. Unsure about streaming radio tho
