Aspects of a method and system for integrated FM recording are provided. A multimedia device with various integrated systems such as an integrated FM radio may provide content-based multimedia content recording, recorded content retrieval, and playback of desired or potentially relevant contents. The multimedia device may receive multimedia content along with information identifying the received multimedia content via the various integrated systems. A segment of the received multimedia content may be recorded selectively by comparing the corresponding content information with a favorite content list. The favorite content list may be generated and updated based on the multimedia content and/or program selection data. The multimedia device may have access to additional related stored multimedia contents to retrieve and render the stored segment of the received multimedia content. Device power consumption may be reduced by utilizing the local stored contents without access to the integrated systems' archives of broadcast program contents.
