Abstract
A system may allow users to automatically record radio programs for later consumption. When a user is listening to a radio program in the car, and arrives at the destination, the user's mobile device may capture an audio sample of the radio station, along with a GPS location of the user, and may transmit this information to a radio station application server. The server may use the location to identify a list of candidate radio stations, and may compare the audio sample with reference recordings of the candidate radio stations, to identify the radio station and program. The program may then be recorded for the user and subsequently played back at the user's convenience and on a device selected by the user, such as a mobile device, television, computer, DVR, or the like.
