Has it been posted on youtube? If so, you can change the setting on firefox to allow you to capture youtube vids.

1. In Firefox go to Tools > add ons and type in "youtube downloader".
2. Download
3. Re-start Firefox and then go into You Tube and below the video there will be a download button.
4. Click on "download", scroll to "HD MP4" and there you go. Takes all of 90 seconds to do it. This will allow you to pull audio off too. But, I don't think the audio will be any higher than 128kbps.

Remember though...I don't think Windows MP will play MP4's but Quicktime and Real Player do.
