Any tips on ripping audio/video from the web....

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Muse have a cracking session on the XFM site:

Is there any way I can grab this into my own files so that I can burn it onto DVD?

All non-techy tips welcome!!

Cheers

Loath as I am to recommend RealPlayer for anything, the latest version has a nice "Download this Clip" feature for any streaming audio or video. Might be worth a look.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Best tip for ripping music & audio from the web is DON"T BOTHER.

The quality is usually so bad that it is simply not worth wasting the bandwidth.
Look at youtube for example.
Not exactly broadcast quality stuff really.
& most of the myspam music sounds like it's being played in a bucket of water.
IMHO of course.... 8)
