+<para>
+  Once you succeed in making <application>MPlayer</application> play
+  your favorite internet radio station, you can use the option
+  <option>-dumpstream</option> to save the stream into a file.
+  For example:
+<screen>
+  mplayer <replaceable>http://217.71.208.37:8006</replaceable> -dumpstream -dumpfile <replaceable>tsf-jazz.mp3</replaceable>
+</screen>
+  will save the content streamed from
+  <replaceable>http://217.71.208.37:8006</replaceable> into
+  <replaceable>tsf-jazz.mp3</replaceable>.
+  This also works with all protocols supported by
+  <application>MPlayer</application>, like MMS, RSTP, and so forth.
