Ripping Audio

[makemesmile108]

I'm doing a project in school on a poet and I want to play this one video clip during my presentation. The problem is, that the video clip is on YouTube, and that's blocked on our school computers. I really just need the audio, so is there a way I could rip the audio and save it to something so I can play it in class?

here is the link. http://youtube.com/watch?v=6hHjctqSBwM

First you need to know the format of the video/audio. GSpot can do most formats. Free, here:

VirtualDub can extract the audio from most containers. If the video will load, you're in business. Free, here:

Open VirtualDub. Click File -> Open Video File. If it loads: Audio -> Full Processing. Audio -> Compression -> PCM (uncompressed). File -> Save WAV. (WAV/PCM is uncompressed audio such as you have on an audio CD).

I'm not on my regular video editing computer, and it's very early in the morning, so maybe the steps above aren't exact. Good luck and post back with result.
