    I use Easy-HiQ to record a variety of computer streams and use it on occasion to record YouTube audio.

    Cheers mate but it looks like you have to pay for that after the trial?

    I was looking for something that's free if possible.

    There is an online "youtube to mp3" converter called dirpy. Very good.
    Make sure to only download material that is not copyrighted ;)

    # Free YouTube Download 2.3.5.72
    # Free YouTube to MP3 Converter 3.2.5.74
    # Free YouTube to iPod and PSP Converter 3.2.5.71
    # Free YouTube to iPhone Converter 2.2.5.71

    the best thing i find is to download the youtube video here: keepvid.com and then use a wave editor like audacity here: audacity.sourceforge.net and then record the music and save as mp3.

    Bearing in mind no youtube audio is anything other than middle-fi at best I use youtubedownloader and covert the audio track from the FLV file

    put pwn in front of youtube.com and it will bring you to a website that will allow you to turn the video into an mp3.

    for example:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOiLVo8yIJE

    becomes

    Jaysus there are tons of ways!

    Personally I've the Youtube Enhancer script installed.

    Then use oxelon media converter to convert the .flv or .mp4 to an .mp3
