Fire up your Firefox web browser and navigate to the Play.FM or SoundCloud player streaming the music you’d like to save.Here’s the quick breakdown on pulling a Play.FM stream: I assume Play.FM limits the number of active simultaneous connections from one computer/IP, so you’ll need to toggle the player so FlashGot detects the MP3 URL, then download the file. There was one catch: you have to hit play within the Flash player to capture the stream URL, then hit pause for the download to start. I tried the usual methods of download/capture for Flash-based music, but nothing was saved to my cache directory, and FreeMusicZilla detected no active streams… I gave the popular FlashGot Firefox plug-in a try and found it to work great. Friendly site with sensational tunes, but many of the songs, particularly those uploaded by independent DJs or artists, are not available for sale or download, making it difficult to listen on portable devices or offline.

I’ve recently stumbled across Play.FM, a flash-based music streaming service similar to Pandora but exclusively featuring Electronic and Dance Music.
