Re: How to capture and save an online mp3?

The answer to this question depends on details that you haven't provided. How
are you retrieving this file? If you're going to http://example.org/file.mp3
in a browser, you just "wget http://example.org/file.mp3" and fuggeddabouddit.
If the file is hosted on some sort of youtube-like service, there are
probably ways to retrieve the file, but we'd need to see an example of a file
hosted on that service to tell you how to find and retrieve files like that.
Basically, Details Count, and until we know them, all we can do is handwave.

Voice-recognition software has improved a bit. I think that you'll probably
get results more like http://sluggy.com/comics/archives/daily/991008 than what
you want, though.
