If all else fails, you can always try using Ambrosia's free WireTap to record the sound directly. Then you can convert it using iTunes or QuickTime.

EDIT: Beaten!

Pfft. WireTap shmiretap.

You want Gordon (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/11541). You can extract the original audio right out of the file!

Granted, it is a little pricey, but it's the ultimate tool for the job. :)

Oh, wait... it's protected? I didn't see that part at first. Well, then maybe WireTap would be your best bet. :p

Of course the ghetto route is to take a stereo mini cable out of your headphone jack and into your line in, then just use any run of the mill sound editor, press record, play the flash, and then you'll have the file in .aif format. You may lose some quality this way though.

you'll also want to make sure that only the flash files audio is playing.

This is why WireTap is teh win!!1!1one

1. No generation loss from using the cable.
2. It's free.
3. ???
4. Profit? No, that's not right...

Yeah, 1 and 2. It's free and produces a file of perfect quality. :)
