This is an old chestnut to some of us seasoned lurkers and internet
junkies.
Here we go...
You can download a programme called Total Recorder, for free.
Search Google to find it.

Install it, its quite safe. The default set up will record any sound on
your computer.
(You have to change the setting if you are sending the sound via a line
in ur usb device)

Have Total Recorder running and know where the record button is. Keep
it open.
Then you go to your "Listen Again" and play whatever it is. Go back to
Total Recorder and hit the record button, et voila! It will record
until you stop it. Don't go out shopping as I did once and fill your
hard disc with a whopping wav file. After rercording is done hit stop
on Total Recorder and save as with a title of your choice. It will be
an uncompressed file which you then have to save to mp3 format.
Personally I upload the file to my net minidisc and play that in the
car.
I hope that helps.

On some machines, like mine for example, Total Recorder is in conflict with
something (perhaps my soundcard), and crashes my system. So, when I wanted
to do this, I recorded the BBC audio onto my MiniDisc recorder.

Slightly off this topic so forgive me but I have just bought a portable
Sharp Mini-disk recorder for about £45 and it just uses the conventional
mini-disk which I also use in large mini-disk player/recorder. Trouble
is, just when I had bought it to use with my Sony mike for recording
instrumental playing etc., I have read about Hi-mini-disks, (or whatever
you call them), which can record up to 1GB. I feel I like returning it
and swapping it for the greater capacity one only I have a friend who
bought one and used its Sonic Stage software and had to return it, he
re-named it Chronic-Stage as he had so much trouble with it.
I was happy with my new purchase until I heard about the newer version,
is there any consolation out there for me?

Yes. Depending on your quality requirements, your Sharp may give you
adequately good recordings with little hassle, and it will play on your
large minidisk player. Have yet to hear of a non-portable Hi-MD deck.
I can't tell the difference between my recordings made on std minidisk
and those using PCM on Hi-MD minidisk using a Sony NH900, but others to whom
I've supplied CDs say they can tell the difference. (I'm over 65 with
hearing loss...es) They preferred the PCM recordings.

Suggest you check into alt.audio.MiniDisc where topics like this have
been discussed recently, or via Google's Groups archives. Also visit
www.minidisc.org for news & views. [Not too many MD recorders allow "on
the fly" recording gain adjustment. I think the Sharp brand is rare in that
respect. Some of the Sony Hi-MD allow it, but their displays may be dim.
The recent Sony RH10 however is good. Got mine from Amazon.)
Latest versions (3.2 on) of Sonicstage allow multiple uploads of your
recordings from Hi-MD formatted discs (both 1GB and ~300MB* types) via USB
to your PC, and conversion to wav files. Beware of earlier versions
supplied in box with new machine, even as recently as 4 weeks ago. It's
normally recommended by Sony that PCM recording to a 1GB Hi-MD disc is done
with additional power supply (a single AA cell) attached to your recorder.
(*by Hi-MD format of standard MiniDisc.)

Thank you so much Malcolm, this advice ties in with that of another
friend of mine very much into sound recording, he had such terrible
trouble with the Hi MD software, SonicStage, as I said above he ditched
it and the machine, sent it back and renamed it Chronic Stage.
Again, thank you again for a most technical and informative answer.
