Itunes has the song for 99 cents.

You will have to download and install the Itune software and the sign up.

Itunes.

It's up to you and your conscience and your computer skills if you want to copy it from Youtube.

Oh, and the whole album is only $7.99 at ITunes. Downloaded, of course.

iTunes has the acoustic version from his new Then & Now album. I was looking for the old studio version. I assume from your reply that taking something from YouTube for personal use is not what that website was intended for. Rats. Thanks anyway, Michael, I appreciate the prompt response.

Ebay, buy it now.

It's vinyl.

Vinyl may be the only way to go. If you have a turn table, it's easy enough and cheap enough to hook up to your computer. The cables can be found at most any electronics store. Then it's just a matter of using your recording software. That's what I've been thinking of doing. I have ~150 albums that aren't being used. And I do prefer the analog sound over the digital sound. Even though the recording bitrate is good, I still can tell the difference between cd's and albums. Albums to me, at least, provide a fuller and richer sound than a cd does. Though albums degrade faster, with the appropiate software, I can record the albums to my computer and then use software to remove any pops and/or whistles that the album may have incurred.

MP3.com has it. This is a sample.

It's up to you if you want to sign up there. MP3.com.

Yes, you can download a video from YouTube.
Instructions at the link below.

Then you just need software like
Freecorder to extract the audio.
Audacity is another free audio program
that is very good to have and is supposed
to be able to do this.

So very close, Michael. I found The Michael Johnson Album at MP3.com, but got the following message when I tried to download. "Sorry, at this time no downloads have been found for The Michael Johnson Album. Check the albums tab for other downloads from Michael Johnson."
Thank you so much for trying to help.

Pooh Bear, I'll check into those. Thanks.

I found a website that tells how to hook up a turntable to a computer and record an lp.

How to....

Oh, how I wish I had a turntable. I even saw one in Linens n Things that records directly to CD. Alas, even a plain vanilla one's a luxury that's nowhere near being in the budget right now. I have a considerable amount of vinyl in both 33 and 45 RPM format that I can only stare and sigh at. Thank you for trying to help, Michael. I truly appreciate it.

Don, I can't seem to make the freeware work. I think the problem may be that I only have an iPod mini, not an iPod video. All I want is the audio portion of the YouTube file. Is there anything else I can try?
