I'm looking for a quick and easy way, if there is such a thing, for capturing audio in OSX. I'm doing scoring work in Logic, and am always coming across reference ideas in movies, shows, etc., that I'd love to grab. Is there any good way to capture audio streaming from, for example, netflix or youtube? Or any audio that's flowing through the mac at any time. Doesn't have to be great quality, just as reference.

The only way I've been able to do this is rent dvds and record that from a dvd player etc into my audio interface, into logic or garageband, audacity, etc. Seems like since Netflix is already streaming through the mac (somehow, I'm technologically illiterate, it would be great to be able to just grab a few minutes or seconds of audio as it goes by.)

Thanks!
