    Hi, Luke (we meet again)
    :)
    I would recommend Audacity as well, it's free, easy to set up, works with Mac, and depending on the soundcard can record streaming audio.
    Cheers,
    Luke

      I dont see where Audacity can grab streaming audio.

      Maybe it's a plug in I have not heard of yet...

        On the far right of the toolbar, there's a drop-down menu for your input - set it for stereo mix, and that should record whatever you're hearing coming out of your speakers.

            Out of curiosity, I just now cracked open my Audacity 1.2.5, running on my Mac OSX 10.4.9... and it cannot capture streaming audio. And I looked all over and tried many options and preferences, but no go.

            So I went to the audacity website, and buried in a list of features page, found this line:

            "With some sound cards, it can also capture streaming audio."

            So... there ya have it, as I understand it. Not a standard feature, but requires "some sound cards".

              Yes, and Audacity....while it is tough to argue with free....is not the easiest thing to work with. I found it a little unintuitive and it doesn't always react the way you want it to. But that FREE thing keeps coming up.
