I'm not sure if it'll work, but you can try this method I came up with. You'll need an audio cable you can connect from you mic port to your audio-out port. Here's how:
1. Record one blank minut of audio on the "Sound Recorder" program that comes with windows. Save the file.
2. Click "Edit"->"Insert File" and copy the file into itself 3 times. This'll give you a 4 minut long blank strip of audio.
3. Connect the mic port to your audio-out port on the back of your computer.
4. Move the "Sound Recorder" slider to the begining of the audio strip. Press the "Record" button in "Sound Recorder" and immediately play the song. This will record it into the sound file.
When it's done, chop off the leftover blank portions at the begining and end. If it works right, you'll have the song in wav format with minimal audio loss and no copy protection. I've done this a few times and never had any trouble.
Oh, and hi, I'm Rob and I'm new here.
