Windows Sound Recorder won't do it, because it only handles files up to a minute long.  Quality is not really an issue, because digital audio is digital audio-- the recording software just stores it.  If you want to mess with it after recording it, that's another story, but in general, anything that can record it successfully will produce the same results, quality-wise, depending on your hardware (especially the microphone!).\n\nThere are lots of apps out there; some are free, some are inexpensive, and some are very expensive indeed.  GoldWave is a good choice: inexpensive, been around for years, quite versatile.  Adobe Audition is more powerful and more professional, but more expensive.  Those would be my strongest recommendations.

there are a few programs you can use for this. try searching download.com for an audio converter. I personally would use a program called audacity for this because it's a good program. you'll need to find the mp3 codec file for it though, but that's not hard.

If you want to record the sound as it is being played you can use a trial version of SoundTap Streaming Audio Recorder 1.25 - download from http://www.download.com/SoundTap-Streaming-Audio-Recorder/3000-2168_4-10580128.html?tag=lst-0-5\n\nYou can search for many other recorders on www.download.com - search for RECORD SOUND PLAYED ON COMPUTER \n\nJust be sure to check limitations listed to make sure it doesn't have some nasty things like only 60 seconds of recording while using trial or saved disabled or junk like that. \n\nIt is good for recording audio streams too. \n\nIf you are wanting to have the file "grabbed" and converted you can try doing a search for audio converter followed by the type of file you want to convert and type you want it converted to (ex: audio converter midi to mp3

You could use free software to split the file - Audacity\n\nhttp://audacity.sourceforge.net/\n\nOr you could use Sony Sound Forge 7 to do the same thing...\n\nBoth save audio files in mp3 format\n\nAlso, both give the option to play around with the track, i.e, change pitch, tempo, volume, etc

In the first place: this is illegal. Real Media does not want their files to be saved and/or converted. \nNevertheless you can find some utilities that claim they can do it. None of them is free. \nTry a google search for "real to mp3".

You can'tdo it directly, unless you have the license to do it.\n\nA workaround is playing the file in one computer, connect the output (headphone) to the input of another computer (microphone) and recording the input sound as MP3 in the second computer.\n\nYou must only do this if you have the permissions from the copyright owner, if not you are violating the copyright and some one can sue you for doing this.

My favorite, and it's free, is http://audacity.sourceforge.net .  There are lots of free plug-ins available for it, too.

You could try what the previous user mentioned, but a better way is this go here:\n\nStart -> Programs -> Accessories -> Entertainment -> Sound Recorder. Just press the RED button, start talking into the mic, hit stop. Then play what you just recorded. Works like a charm.

Use "MP3MyMP3", it's a free program that can record ANYTHING going through your sound card (assuming you choose the right input device on the program), and allows you to save it to MP3 or MSADPCM WAV. Be careful though, it can slow down your system, as it's rather process intensive if you're trying to record from games (which you don't appear to be doing).\n\nThe website is:\n\nhttp://www.mp3mymp3.com\n\nHope this helps you.
