Recording audio from internet can seem like a task, but I've tried my best to simplify it
in a dummies kind of tutorial. There are websites which will extract audio from youtube
videos and make an mp3 for you, but that is very specific to sites ilke youtube or vimeo.
Using this technique you can record and save any audio that plays through your browser.
I do not support piracy or infringement of copyright. Please make sure that you have
permission to record audio from a particular site before you go ahead and do it.

Soundflower is an amazing app which works like a patch bay, sending and receiving
signals through a set of channels and buses. It has both 2 channel and 16 channel
options available. While 16 channel is for more advanced use, 2 channel should be
good enough as we'll be recording stereo in most of the cases.

Step #1:
Download and install soundflower and audacity.

Step #2:
Go to your applications folder and launch soundflower.

Step #3:
You should be able to see a tiny soundflower on you menu bar on top.

Step #4:
Click on the logo and select your audio interface. Use 'built-in output' if aren't using an
external audio device.

Step #5:
Go to system preferences and click on sound. Select your output device as 'soundflower (2ch)'.

Step #6:
Launch your audio recording application, in my case it's audacity.

Step #7:
Go to your recorders i/o preferences and select 'soundflower (2ch)' as your input device.

Step #8:
Start recording audio in your recorder.

Step #9:
Play the desired audio in your browser.

Step #10:
Stop recording and save the recorded audio.

I am looking forward to your response and comments. Please give in your suggestions on how I can
