saving streaming audio to disk

Given a URL for an MP3 audio stream, how could I write a little
utility that would start the stream flowing, capture it to a disk
file, and then disconnect from the stream? I'm imagining that, for
example, if I save an hour-long chunk taken out of an MP3 audio
stream, I would get an hour-long MP3 file on my hard drive.

I'd prefer to use Python, but I'm not sure where to start.

Thanks for any tips.

Is streaming audio capable in asp.net 2.0 / AJAX? What I mean by streaming audio is: ability to play one or more songs back to back...or maybe even let the user select several songs to play and it will play them back to back. Thanks, Tony K

Hi all, It may seem like a rather odd request (or not) but I would like to be able to create a file (doc, jpg, xls or one of many other files that can be automated) on a website and stream it to a user without saving it to the disk first. Obviously saving the file first and streaming it afterwards is fairly easy to do, but it relies on disk write permissions on the server and you'd have to make sure the file was removed afterwards.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
