iMusic is a great music recording tool, enabling you to create MP3 files from your online media, be it YouTube videos, Pandora playlists or over 500 other sites. With the ability to handle different formats and different quality settings it can produce music files to suit any needs, add in the ability to identify and tag tracks and you have a fantastic and complete software solution for recording streaming audio.
Another audio recorder, this one offers a similar feature set to audio recorder, although it does lack some of the compatibility of that software, it can output in several different formats and can add downloads to your iTunes library automatically if required. It falls a little short in terms of user interface, which looks a little dated compared to others here and doesn’t quite offer the comprehensive solution to match the best software available.
iTube Studio for Mac is a comprehensive product that can deal with all kinds of streaming media, it can download almost any video you want and convert it into an audio only file for your library quickly and easily, and with one click downloading is incredibly easy to use, in addition to musical requirements this is a great piece of software for grabbing any video you like from over 1000 compatible streaming sites, making it a great option for all your media needs.
iSkysoft iSkysoft iMedia Converter Deluxe is another video application that can turn downloaded videos into MP3 files and import them into your iTunes library for you. It offers great performance, with fast conversions, but is only compatible with YouTube and so not as useful as some here. It is also a little lacking in terms of usability, the interface is not the most attractive here and it is not always clear how to accomplish some tasks. A good program, but there are better here.
As an option for just recording music straight of streaming sites, iMusic is the best option out there. Aside from the MP3 and M4A file formats in a variety of quality settings, it is the ability to identify tracks as you record them and tag the file with the correct artist, album and title automatically that stands out. It can also automatically cut out ads from the recording and split each song into its own file if you are recording more than one at a time, for instance a Pandora playlist. All of these tracks can be searched by album, artist and title name within the library, and can be exported to your iTunes library with a single click.
