I usually listen to streaming radio using my Logitech USB Headset with Mic.
If legally OK, how can I record something that I am listening to via this headset? I have tried various MME settings, so far without success.
(Note that if I use a normal jack plug headset then recording is straight forward using Stereo Mix)
Windows 7 64 bit with IE9 or Google Chrome Browsers

Re: USB Headset
If the USB headset does not have a "Stereo Mix" option (it probably doesn't) then you will not be able to record "Stereo Mix" via the USB headphones. You will probably need to use the ordinary built-in sound card when you want to record sounds that are playing on the computer.
