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."

    You have to remember OS9 apps are not compatible with OSX and vise versa. So who cares about OS9 apps, you may as well be talking about Atari apps in relevance here. There is nothing that comes close to what AudioHijack can do based on my own comparisons. It's about time more Mac users came over to OSX. It's a darn site better than OS9. Especially with OS 10.2.1 out now.

    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.
