I'm looking for a way to download a video clip and convert the file to an mp3 file. Anyone got any ideas?
The file is not on YouTube but I thought I had seen a thread on something similar to this a while ago. It's actually a live rehearsal version of a song that a friend of mine needs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Generally, these types of files cannot be saved by command. However, they are downloaded to a temp internet file folder, when viewing. Its a little tricky finding this type of file. If you want me to provide some rather lengthy instructions, let me know and I will post them.

They are nixing videos over there pretty aggressively. They are catching heat from who else, the recording industry.
I've been blown away by some of the music vids on there. Good stuff.
I haven't had time to play with these...seemed like too much work. Post your results if you do it:
