Today, I came across a handy command line tool called mimms that allows you to rip mms:// MP3 streams to an MP3 file on your computer for later listening. It is very easy to install and use.
Install mimms:
sudo apt-get install mimms
Sample usage:
mimms mms://iss-video.leeds.ac.uk/smlc/audio/eas/east3031/03Chopsticks.mp3mimms mms://iss-video.leeds.ac.uk/smlc/audio/eas/east3031/03Chopsticks.mp3 filename-here.mp3
Of course you can find out more command line options by simply typing mimms –help
Happy ripping!
