Rip audio from BBC's I-Player

[Arthur]

^ Why buy Streaming Audio Recorder when programs like Radio Downloader and iPlayer Automator are free?

Has anyone considered that maybe the reason that there's no podcast is because it would breach the copyright arrangements of the piece to offer it as a download, therefore all of the ripping/downloading processes are illegal, or do we not worry about the legalities of things like this any more?

Hi all,

 

Anyone know how to do this in the easiest way? I just want to grab audio from a bbc radio show, but every method I've tried so far has fallen flat on it's face.

 

Dont know re legal but Audacity and an audio cable between line in and speaker out will record anything playing through the speaker socket simple but true
