An article in MacWeek regarding RecordIt:

www8.zdnet.com

Some quotes:
<< Bennett Klein, Iomega manager of software product marketing....
characterized the announcement as a new direction for Iomega. "We
want to provide a total solution for users, not just storage. This is
our first foray into multimedia software," he said, hinting that other
software products are in the works. As multimedia capabilities become
standard equipment on most Intel-standard PCs, the company is leveraging the trend for both Macs and PCs, he said.>>

<<Users will be able to record from microphones or copy prerecorded files from CDs and hard drives. Iomega teamed with Q-Design Corp. of
Vancouver, British Columbia, to develop a proprietary
compressor-decompressor (codec) for the product. There will be four
quality levels: The first three will maintain 16-bit, 44-kHz stereo
MPEG-1 file resolution, with gradual quality degradation as lossier
codecs are used in exchange for longer recording times. The
lowest-quality level will record 16-bit, 22-kHz mono MPEG-2 files.>>
