Possibly the silliest "technical" question ever posed around here

So when Coop was itty bitty, he loved him some Snug A Baby swing.  It is a fixture in the nursery, and when we were in the "re-living the same 3 hours over and over again" phase of newborn care, we always had the soft plinky-plunky music going as we rocked away or snoozed in the dim, cozy nursery.

Bottom line - Keri is addicted to the plinky-plunky music.  Nothing else will do. I have checked FP's CDs out, and none of them seem to be the same music.

I confess, I can't let my swing go (to the used store or my parents' basement or whatever,) because I just love that music.

So - is there some way I could record it?  Do people even do that anymore?  Is there a better way to do it then when I used to make copies of tapes by putting my sister's boom box facing mine and taping from one to the other.

I need an enabler to make my snug-a-bunny tune addiction ok.

Anyone?

You have an iphone right? Or am I imagining that?

It has a voice memo recorder you could use. 

I'd imagine other type of phones have the same kind of thing. 

Edit: I feel dumb. I know better than to think you have an iphone. Sorreh! Anyway, smartphone voice recorder.

Is it like a music box?  Can you find the same song on a music box? 

Andrea has a good idea to record on your phone.  You can have it as your ringtone

No iStuff at Todds_house.

But that is what I was wondering, is there something free standing that I could record it on - like a digital voice recorder?  If so, could I transfer it to a computer after?

And am I impossibly lame for not being able to give up the snug-a-bunny swing, or for considering taking it's insides out and leaving it a shell of a swing forever?

Oh Keri.

You can definitely get a free-standing digital voice recorder at any kind of store. I'd guess they run $30-$50 or so.

Josh has a hand-held recorder he uses for interviewing athletes. It can be connected to the computer and saved as an MP3, which can then be put on a phone as a ring tone or added to a iPod or iPod type player. Want me to bring it to you?

Worth a try... but I don't want you to have to bring it to me. I will come get it when I am up that way.

It's NBD. Really - and I don't know if J will let it go for longer then it takes to record and download. He uses it a LOT for fighter interviews, so while I know he'll have no problem with you giving it a try, I'm betting he won't want it gone for long

Sounds like an excuse for a HH.  Maybe Antonio can help?
