Using a DVD recorder to record radio programs


I recently purchased a DVD recorder to make copies of home movies from video tapes but have played around with it and found I could input audio signals via my receiver to the analog inputs on the dvd recorder. I've tried recording the audio only in the extended mode and it sounds very good. I used to do this with my vhs machine so I could copy entire radio programs so as to listen to them at a later time.
Any comments on doing this with the dvd recorder? Will there be a big difference in sound quality depending on the speed chosen to record the programs? The machine I have allows up to 8 hrs of recording time in extended mode. I was also wondering if I were to feed prerecorded dvd video/audio signals to the dvd recorder via my receiver would the copy guard still be a factor or will the receiver act as a filter and allow the dvd recorder to copy the movie? All in the interest of science mind you!
Comments/suggestions are welcome.
Thanks.

Go with a computer program (plaenty out ther in cyberspace to copy movies) to copy that DDVD stuff. or you will orobaly get scrwed up with macrovision\.Do a test for us and tell upo i f Macrcrovision is just a "vision" thing.But on your computer it's all ones and zero's.I don't feel bad for MPAAA when someone wants to back up a CD or even rent and watch latter.But they release a new movie and within 48 hours it's being sold with covce art (never mind you a see a woman walk in front of the bootlegger who is coipying a film in a thatre).But have heard that Bill Gates has offered up "Micrsoft 10 player" instead of Macrovison which is somehow as close to needing a "key" disc before play or somehting like and if this happens I will bum out.For the price of $50 for "Lawrence Of Arabia" I feel I should be able to back it up just the way music folks don't want to dsetroy their CD's in car play.And foget inputs you can't even get the weasels who make the equipent put a 5.1 out ona DVD a 'la componnet outputs meaning you use their digital output but if you want to tweak the sound,bass managemnent etc.No wonder the software manufacturers compolain all the time they are doing with softwar what Anericans did with cars up till the 70's.Contemptible greedheads who if you wanted FM or air conditioning thought they should make more money.Then came the Japanese with two trim lines and cleaned there clocks and well all know what happened.If you expriment ad to the post.
