I think you have to use either a small flash application or a silverlight application to do the actual recording. Then you upload the file to your application using a web service or similar.

And mp3 is sort of a standard file format for sound on the web. So I'd go with that.

• May be real media (.rm).

Any particular format that the file should be saved in for optimum output.

• Not sure but I think that depends on your player.
