What software is best to use to extract audio only from DVD?
A similar question if I may be so bold as to say so as
"how long is a piece of string??

Oh dear Al where is your sense of adventure??
First of all from the nature of your question one must assume that your computer features a drive that will play DVDs (else
no software wouid be applicable anyway).(failing that for those who have only a standalone DVD player you could hook that up to their computer to digitis(z)e see Musicmatch below)
whatever.
Try googling for
"extract audio from a DVD"
you will get over half a million results top of the pile is
"Download DVD Audio Ripper - A software DVD soundtrack ripper which can extract sound tracks
from DVDs and save them as MP3 or WAV format."
but it will set you back 30 bucks so search within those results for "freeware"
then check a few of the 200,000+ results
I found:-
"BurnOn CD/DVD Free v3.1" at:- http://www.burnworld.com/burnoncddvd/
Or if you already have the wonderful MusicMatchwhere you can download a
(completely free basic version
currently version 9 for Windows 98)
and 10 but only if you have Windows XP
Then as Valerie has several times described it whatever is coming out of your computer's loudspeakers can be immediately recorded onto your hard drive either as a compressed mp3 or a full wav file. Then a CD burning program(me) such as Nero can be used to
directly burn (from either the mp3 or wav file format) a standard audio CD to play in your CD player including the one in
your muscle car
I hope that helps
