The Clip+ does support FM recording. BUT, and this is a big but, I think there were two Clip+ models. I dunno. What I do know is that I have updated to the most recent firmware, V01.02.18A (2011, I believe) and I have FM recording as an option. So maybe a firmware addition?
Yes, that's right, I still have my Clip+ that I bought due to recommendations here back in 2011. I use it for my Old Time Radio files, mostly, and full-length concert albums. Because my Ipod Touch only has so much space, you know. Have to draw that line somewhere. And OTR works well with audiobook-ish functionality, so there's that.
I have to admit, the Clip+ sounds just as good as the Touch but, for the love of all that is holy and overpriced, don't tell anyone I said that. My Touch excels at many, many things, but when it comes to just playing something, the Clip+ is still very much a contender. I've looked at the newer Clip models but they don't move me to upgrade.

No laughing. Your post is quite relevant and helpful. I have several Clip+s that are still running V01.02.15A and they don't have FM record, so it looks like FM record was added with the later firmware upgrade. Unfortunately, I can't test it out because SanDisk's software is not compatible with my Chromebook. I'll have to wait until I can access a Windows PC.
Thanks - I'll revise the OP
