zakk Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Alot of the GNR leaks are on Youtube. Is there a way to download just the song to my music library on my computer? I am computer illiterate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBear Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 (edited) Download Audacity. It will let you record sound only (well, the program only does audio so I guess that goes without saying). Basically it has a function that will record whatever is playing at that time, and it does a whole bunch more.http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ Edited August 2, 2008 by KBear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Sal Bug Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Yes.I think there is some sort of Fire Fox add on, was on my old comp. pretty cool. search google it shouldn't take long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabrielsevenn7 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 If you have a soundcard that lets you record whatever audio your soundcard happens to be playing at any given time you could just record the audio that way. There should be an option that says something like, "record what you hear," in your software mixer menu. I had this on my old Soundblaster Card. If this doesn't work, try running an audio cable out of your line out and put the other end into the line in and record it that way--making a sort of loop with your soundcard. I haven't tried this yet. Be interested to see if it works.Then, you need to open a program that lets you record audio. I think Windows has something integrated into it. Or some software may have been bundled in with your soundcard installation cd.Make sure you turn the Windows sounds off so they don't bleed into the recordings.Or you could do it the old fashioned way. Run an audio cable out of your line-out into a tape recorder or digital recorder.Getting just the audio out of a video file is most likely going to be a manual process without expensive software.

Zion Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Whenever I rip from Youtube I use a file conversion site. Like this one: ZamzarCopy/paste the URL,choose MP3 format,then wait a few minutes before checking your email.Bada Bing. Bada Boom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Go to Google and look for 'Free Youtube To Mp3 Converter' and download it from download.com. It's very, very easy to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zakk Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 Thank you guys. I hate to be a "Downloading Motherfucker" but I just want to be able to listen to the new songs in my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
estranged 16 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 and i hate to be a downer, but im sure most of the leaks are taken off youtube. around 2 weeks ago, anything tagged with 'chinese democracy' or any of the leaks were removed from youtube and the uploaders of the videos were warned/temporarily suspended..some might still be there though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokingarthur Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 The least invasive way to do this is simple:Open up two web pages, on one web page go to you tube and play or open the video that you want to convert to mp3. On the other web page set it to www.vixy.net. Now go back to the youtube page with the video of the song you plan to grab. Now cut and paste the web address to that particular video and paste it in the box on vixy.net. You will have several options of what you can convert the file into, select mp3. The video will then begin to convert while you can visually see the progress. When it is done converting it will download to your default music player in mp3 format. You will have to manually rename it and you are done. If you are using a Mac there is an additional step: you must select "advanced" in your itunes and select "convert to AAC". When the conversion is done the song will display the proper length. You can then convert it back to mp3(the reason that you have to convert it to AAC is because the song will display random, incorrect info, you can alter the title but not the length, so the conversion fixes this issue).

estranged 16 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 like i said in the post above me, that audio downloader isnt spyware free. do any of you know another one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Sal Bug Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Try this? http://www.vconversion.com/I'd recommend downloading albums/songs if you're going to be getting music from the internet for free if anything tho, since the quality will never be very good with any youtube converter.

Marky Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 www.keepvid.comOnce you download the mp4, put it in an itunes playlist with an mp3, highlight them both and right click, convert to AAC/MP3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
