Here's two examples from real life: 1. You are at a concert and record the whole event. In fact your start the recording way before the concert not to miss the beginning and leave it running all the time until the end. This might give you a 300 MB file and you probably want to forward to check on the results right after the end. 2. You hate your local radio stations so to avoid it you connect your jukebox to cable or satellite radio and press record when you come back from work. The next morning you press stop and have a 500 MB file. Now you unplug the jukebox, put it into the car and play your favorite station. You can skip any song, newsbreak or commercial you don't like. And if they play something really good (like a surprise live set) you can cut it out of the big file before you delete the rest. #2 is something I do every week and the main reason why I enjoy Rockbox so much: It records full days without crashing and has a user defined fast forwarding speed that is flexible enough to reach any point in a gigabyte file within a reasonable amount of time.
