Today i was listening to the radio in the g/f car and found some good stations and was wondering,what is out there for computers for FM Tuner cards?

i believe some TV Tuners have FM tuners, this would be one that would be over the air signal is what i want to get...

Any one have any input?


[EDIT]

i see some TV tuners got it but now i am thinking perhaps something in a USB flavor would be good, for if i sell my desktop i can use it on my netbook as well.
 
Have you considered an MP3 player with an FM radio built in? EX: My $13 refurb Sansa Clip (1GB) has FM, and I'm sure other MP3 players have FM as well.
 
i assume i could connect it to my computer via the headphone hack to my line in?

ideally i would like to record some shows that come on

should be able to, but don't expect volume control to be flawless until you bother with it a bit (to get things setup right)

might see if any of these stations are available as netradio?

also, check Leadtek out, I have a PCI tuner card from them, cost me like $32 in 2006, still works great, and has FM, they may have USB solutions (wouldn't doubt it, but I don't know, I know they have PCIe and PCI)
