I'm hoping that somebody can help me with this.....

You all know that i'm the biggest Gram Parsons nut right? Well you do now.

Anyway, BBC 6music are doing a feature on him at the moment and have a 1 hour long tribute concet posted on their site here http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/out/fest...le/index.shtml

The actual file that I want to capture is here ...... >
http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/ram/sess_gramparsons.ram

It does play in RealOne but I can't seem to save it for some reason.

Can anybody offer any ideas as to how I can get this file down onto my computer?

I'd be interested in seeing a solution to this.. it was always my impression that RealAudio copy protection was tricky to crack.

This is the reason you can't save it.

Do you have Total Recorder on your system?

Otherwise, grab the streambox tools.

If you don't want to buy (or have) any software, you could always loop the audio out and record it.
But for a hour show I'll bet that it will skip at least once during the stream.

Thanks Music Fanatic. I downloaded Streambox VCR and installed it. Within minutes I had the file that I wanted

Very cool piece of software.

I'm just writing it to a CD now as I type

I'm using the RealOne Player for the writer.

I just wish people would stop using Real's crap format altogether, so we can all delete Real's crappy software and live happier lives.

COOL! Thanks for the tip on recording guys!

And I agree.. Realnetworks are a plague. I hate the interogation you get when installing it, and how it is set to "Annoy me with crap" by default.

On the Mac side the free Wiretap or Audio Hijack/Audio Hijack Pro are great options. If Reals music service takes off (192 AAC wrapped in Helix - best quality of the legal services), we may have to deal even more with Real in the future.
