How to Enable Recording of Streaming Audio in Windows Vista
When you are listening to streaming audio such as from a podcast or online video website, then you may want to record the audio. This is useful if you want to listen again at a later date or add the audio to your iPod or other multimedia device. You do not need any additional software to enable streaming audio recording in Windows Vista. You change a sound option and then use the inbuilt "Sound Recorder."
