Please could someone point me towards a good way of ripping songs from MySpace. Something which isn't full of spyware, etc. Perhaps a Firefox plugin?
THANKS

I'm pretty sure what you're asking about is illegal.

Erm... Are you the internet po-po?

And if I am? Are you still going to go through with these plans?

Yeah, i can rip from YouTube. But unfortunately the band never got round to uploading to YouTube. Any help/pointers would be appreciated.

Write to someone in the band - they'll hook you up with tracks.

Google "stream ripping" + your OS. You should be able to rip the audio from you sound card and save it to a file. Are lots of apps out there that does it.

My GF was in the band, but lost the login, etc. Contacting the other members of the band is not her preferred route.

- that being said, I also lost recordings from 2 or 3 bands I was in too.MikeColdFusion

It's likely in your cache as an MP3 if it's a Flash-based music player (unless they embedded into a SWF which I doubt). Just open your cache and sort it by file type, look for the MP3's and then copy and paste out of that location. If it is embedded into a SWF you could always use a decompiler to get the audio out.

Would it be so crazy to open up an audio program and hit record?

"I'm trying to download two tracks from an unsigned band who don't exist anymore. Is that OK?"
What's the reason they don't exist anymore?
They couldn't sell albums 'cos everyone was just ripping their stuff so couldn't sustain the band and had to go back to their day jobs?seriously though ....... download Audacity.

1. Wait for them to become famous.
2. Buy their first album.
3. Feel like a responsible adult.

Mail them a check for $20 along with a handwritten note requesting a copy of the album.
