:Uh, I just use the standard audio recorder that comes with windows Vista. Unlike the one from XP, it lets you record for as long as you want. If I want to record a song from the internet, I connect the headphone and microphone from the computer. Kind of primitive, but works perfectly.--[[User:Prezintenden|<b><span style="color:Gray">Prezintenden</span></b>]]<sub>[[User talk:Prezintenden|<span style="color:orange">(babble)</span>]]</sub>

I'm sure you could just set the input for the program to 'stereo mix' instead of doing that...but ok.  I did research, and it seems the only output is WMA - which could be a problem if it ''is'' necessary to convert to OGG, as free audio converters/editors don't generally support WMA due to copyright issues as it technically belongs to Windows.  At least, Audacity doesn't, and that's what I use for everything audio.  To record, I'd recommend Audacity over that, as it's free, can edit the audio, and save in OGG or MP3.
Now, you could try a test to see what filetypes the wiki will actually accept before converting them all to OGG only to find that MP3 would have sufficed.  Also, what sort of page were you thinking of having?  What would make it encyclopaedic and not a load of music files?{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
