I want to capture streaming audio from my browser.
Is there any way to do this in linux?

You can use VLC to capture audio streams. Optionally you can also transcode them on the fly.

Try Streamripper: its a program you have to start in a console.
Its available in the repositories.

Its not very hard to operate - I mostly use it like this:

streamripper <stream_url> -l 1800 -a stream.mp3

To explain: -l 1800 means that you want to rip only 1800 seconds of the stream. -a means you want to create only one file with the name "stream.mp3".

There are many other options that you can use - type only streamripper and look for other available commands and explainations...

I have used Audacity to do this, with good results.
