Ripping songs off myspace

**Blitz** · 09-21-2009, 12:09 AM

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.

Total Recorder

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.

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.

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.
