Is there anyway to save something on to your computer that is being streamed from the internet?

Nopes. It comes directly from the site and most disable all the ways you could find out the source

Dang it Thanks anways

The streaming is most sites way of getting you to pay more to download. They have taken alot of precautions to prevent people taking the files.  Silly people

if it's streaming from a built in wmp, sometimes you can right click it and look at properties to find a direct link... and then save that through your normal wmp.
but only sometimes

i'm not sure what you want, but you can record it with things like this.

maybe you can use a sound recorder, like windows sound recorder or maybe the creative labs (soundblaster sound cards) sound recorder and then change the format to .mp3 (originally is a .wav)

Spiderr

If you're using WMP, you could try going to File/Add to Library then clicking on Add currently playing item. This will save the stream into your media library so you can open up your library and play it anytime you want. It's the closest thing u can get to actually saving the streaming file to your computer. I have used it to save streaming radio links.

You can try this.

Yeah, i think he put www. infront of it, which caused it not to work. I googled the link and it had a direct http://

It isn't working for me.  I can't even open it.

Is the link or the program not working? If the link, make sure you are using http://streamripper.sourceforge.net/ and not http://www.streamripper.sourceforge.net/.

Why not try out Screamer Radio. Has a nice 'record' button. Still in beta though, and development seems to have slowed down a lot.

No I meant that when I try to download the streamripper it won't even open Have no clue why.

if u feel like spending some money u could get a minidisk player, plug it into your computers speakers and record the stream

y dont u just listen to launch.com then dl the songs from limewire or something like that?

There is a program, one for Windows Media Player and one for Real player that rips streaming music etc. You can download a free trial of it and you get to rip something like 5 for free or something. I can't really remember, I'll see if i can find it 'cause I can't remember what it was.

[Edit]
This is what I've found while looking. They aren't what I saw before but they look promising:

You'll need a program that can handle *.tar.gz. One of the programs that does that is WinRAR.

I can't get it StreamRipper to work.  I downloaded it and extracted the files.  But then I couldn't open it.
