"Hotel" pilot theme

[bmasters9]

Is there a way to extract audio from YouTube clips? The reason I ask is because I'd like an .mp3 of the pilot theme from "Hotel" (a.k.a. "Arthur Hailey's Hotel"). The regular theme that I found from televisiontunes.com is good, but somewhat watered down.

Here's a clip that has this theme:

This isn't an answer to your question, but I was actually wondering if audio could be taken from Youtube as well. There are SO many songs I've found that I haven't heard in YEARS that I'd love to have. I don't have an MP3 (I live in the stone ages, so I don't really even know what that is! ), but eventually I'll get caught up to the 21st Century.

Thanks very much. When I said that the theme from televisiontunes.com was somewhat watered down, I was only talking about the sound quality-- the theme itself is still as great as ever. I forgot to mention that. Just the same, thanks for your response,

I found a way to do it-- I got the clip using keepvid.com, and then used AoA Audio Extractor to center around the portion of the clip that contained the music; you can do that by using the "Movie Clip" button, and then adjusting the sliders to center around the portion that you want (in this case, for me, the opening theme song). It's a 2-min. clip, and sounds just as great as it sounded in the video clip.

Considering the superb results from this first conversion, I may try it on some of the clips that I have on CD-- if I have enough good songs, I may make a mix CD.
