I hate these, because I always want the music in MP3 form so I can sample it.

open it in audacity, trim it down to the mot interesting portions, and export those?

When I need to sample a Youtube video, I just record it in Audacity with the 'record whatever should be coming out of your sound speakers' settings

Salix Babylonika

...you can do that?

Like,

There's a bar under the Play/Stop/Fast Forward buttons where you can fiddle with the speakers and the microphone, yeah? If you mess with the microphone, there should be an option to record via the speakers.

At least, that's what it does for mine. Maybe it's the sound driver I use? It's Realtek, if anyone's curious.

I'm not mad so much as just happy to know this exists now. Makes things way easier.

I learned a long time ago to record things in Audacity.

Never used it for anything worthwhile, mind you. But I know

Audacity is fun because effects stacking and speed changes are the shit.

Ever listen to Bad Romance at x3 speed?

Sounds like a flamboyant black drag queen
