    there's probably loads of tools out there to do it but I did it recently by importing the mpeg into my editting package (adobe - premier elements - you can download a free trial version). Import the mpeg, drag it to the timeline. Then unlink audio (right click on the timeline mpeg) and then export audio (menu option). Check around for some tools and if worst comes to worst - download premier elements,
    cheers,

    If you have Adobe Audition (once known as Syntrillium's Cool Edit Pro - before filesharing spread copies far and wide) just go to the File menu and choose the option "Open Audio from Video" - the handy thing about this function, as with most of Audition's menu functions, is that you don't have to wait for the audio extraction to run to completion if you don't need to extract all of the audio data.

    Sorry if I'm thread hijacking but can any of these tools remove voice but keep backround music? I know there's a nice technical name for this but I can't think of it at the min.

    The term you're looking for is "Vocal Cut". Most tools will do this by simply subtracting the right channel from the left - they base this action on the principle that the voice is normally panned centrally.

    You'll certainly be able to hear some background music after this operation, depending on where the various instruments have been placed in the sonic landscape, but it'll normally sound quite hollow and distant.
