Record Audio From Any Mac OS X Application
MrFreak writes "Have you ever wanted to grab a sound from DVD Player or record a RealMedia stream to AIFF? It's previously been impossible to do this digitally, but the folks at Rogue Amoeba have released a piece of software called Audio Hijack that allows you to record audio from any OS X application. Additionally, it can apply live audio effects to any application, so you can add an equalizer to MAME or play Quake 3 with a live echo or flanger effect."
Isn't MP3 a patented, but licensed, proprietary format from some German company? The name escapes me. Just thought it was funny that one would go from one propietary format to another. Ironic, actually. Why not ogg? Assuming, since this is the Mac, that someone could write an ogg plugin for iTunes encoding and decoding.
