No, mate, the media is embedded. You wouldn't
want this quality anyway. You can save the
audio simply enough, and, there are complicated
way around capturing the video, too, but you
would probably need access to a DV editing
suite.

Carl, actually it's quite easy to record streaming video from the internet.

1. WM Recorder (works like a charm at Launch)
WM Recorder works by watching internet activity relating to Window Media Player, and assembling the streamed data as an ASF file, which can then be played using Windows Media Player on your PC
Open WM Recorder, go to your video streaming site, click "Rcord", and play the video. WM Recorder will save it as an asf file on your hard disk.

2. CamStudio
CamStudio lets you set an area of your screen that you'd like to capture. Anything inside this area is then recorded to a movie file on your hard drive.

note:
If you are unable to capture streaming video with a screen grabber program. This is because the video was being displayed as an overlay by the video hardware and not actually being drawn to the screen. To disable the overlay, go to Display Properties > Settings > Advanced > Troubleshooting. Move hardware acceleration from full to none. This will force RealPlayer (and most other players) to actually draw the video to the screen and allow you to capture it with any screen grabber.

3. HiDownload(HD)
use HiDownload to record streaming Real Networks Media. This software also works for Windows Media such as .asf, .wmv, .wma, .asx, so on and so forth.

blah, blah, blah......

There's no way of saving these videos onto my hard drive, is there? I haven't checked them out yet, but they are only streaming videos, right?
