Stupid Question?

[Ly2n]

Is there a way to download a Real Audio file to my drive and then record it to a CD. There a a couple of web pages that have speaker tapes that I would like to have and they use Real. I haven't tried anything yet because I don't know enough to try. Thanks Lynn

is it the software thats illegal or the recording of realplayer ? i don't have it so i can't read the ULA.
and if it's just the software you could output the sound to a tape player......
good luck

the recording is illegal

If I have permission from the people that own the web site to record the audio, how does using real make it illegel? I thought that I only had to get permission from the owner of the audio, not the people that happen to own the streaming software. Lynn

the DMCA , i beleve covers not just the audio it's self but the manner in which it's carried . sounds like a fine line for the ACLU to ponder.......
good luck
