So since Myspace updated their music players, all the traditional sites I used for getting songs off there are now useless. Anyone have alternatives?

I tried using Audacity to record my computer's audio, but it won't let me select the output to record from or whatever.

Got it. Like I said, I can't record the audio from my computer.

Turn on Stereo Mix in your PC's audio settings. And you didn't say that. :p You said Audacity didn't work because it wouldn't let you choose output.

Really, I just don't believe that your PC is incapable of recording direct audio from your sound card. This is usually just a matter of setting it up right, and making sure your drivers/audio software is up to date.

I was starting to think I was the only one who realized how incredibly easy it was to just download songs from myspace like that.

But now, I just go to playlist.com. Find the song you want, visit the website, ala myspaces old setup, and ta-da.

:y:

I have been unable to find a way. There's even a little tutorial in Total Recorder about how to set it to do so in Vista, and I just can't. There is no option for stereo output, etc.

I use a laptop, if that matters at all.

I have tried a million ways on Vista to do it and I can't do it either.

I was able to do it in Vista, and am currently able to do it in Windows 7.

What do you mean there is no option?

Options > Settings > Driver - Here is a screenshot.. if you don't have this screen, then I don't know what to tell you.

This is just using my on-board sound too.
