There was on software that looked amazing! But, I forget what it's called. The guys who made it always updates. It is about to have youtube audio downloads, which is amazing. It had free samples... It was great quality. It was really cheap to compared to others softwares + a better value.
I downloaded "Sigma player" for free and slow down itunes tracks. Really, horrible quality... and only one speed.
My advice is try to shell out $40-$100 to buy a decent software package. Otherwise, just rewind a zillion times (and turn the volume up). Your ear will develop. Don't worry about perfection your first run through either. Go back a few times and fix your previous mistakes. Hope this helps
