Benefits

• Listen on your schedule. Recordings sit in your library until you want them.
• Multiple versions, pick the best. Edges record in parallel; download whichever is largest or highest quality.
• Bandwidth-friendly. Concurrent downloads swarm peer-to-peer in your browser instead of hammering one server.
• Federated catalogs. See recordings made by other instances without leaving the page.
• Video support. Record YouTube, ARTE, and any yt-dlp-supported platform alongside ARD radio.
• Self-hostable. Run your own instance on a Raspberry Pi for personal use.
• Open source. Contributions welcome — translations, bug fixes, new features.
• Multilingual. Currently English and German; more EU languages welcome via PR.
• No tracking. No analytics, no third-party scripts, no cookies beyond login session and language preference.
