There is a game with very nice music. I am just wondering how can you rip the song off of the game? I love the music and my dad is also wondering. :D

There are probably sound recording programs out there that can record sound made by your computer before its sent out to the speakers, or stick some sort of sound recording device on the end of an audio cable and your computer on the other.
If you're really good with computers you could try downloading the game and de-compiling it or somthing else along those lines and trying to find the source of the music.

I think the simplest way (as has already been 'sort of' described') is, if you have two computers, get a 3.5mm to 3.5mm stereo jack plug lead and connect the 'headphones output' of one to the 'mic input' of the other, download a free sampling program, and record it.

Even better, feed the headphone out into the mic input of the same computer.

Use audacity, and set the recording input to "stereo mix".

Wouldn't finding the name of the song be less trouble than trying to rip it?

I've seen quite a few internet games with custom music made specifically for the game so it's hard to get.
I've had this problem myself a few times before, but in the end I just gave up.

Some newer soundcards hide the "stereo mix" and some don't even have it at all... Either use the old fashioned analog hole ie plug line out to line in and there you go, or link me to the game and i'll see what i can do, i was bored anyway. Is the game downloadable or is it web-based?

I second the audacity method. Its simple.

Also, chances are theres a sound file in the games installation directory, .ogg probably.
