Just have your sound card record what is coming out of the analog line…

Something like audacity can do it, or the software that comes with your sound card.

You will want to capture it and downsample it to mp3 in real time, that might take a bit of horsepower.

audacity would be what i would say to use, just make sure you have the MP3 codec for it so you can save in MP3

Did you find a program that just hooks into the browser or did you end up going with Audactiy?
