KeithNacho There is a program called "DVD audio ripper". It allows you to extract audio stream from DVD disk (in wav or mp3). If disc is copy protected you should run 'DVD Decrypter' or 'DVD Shrink' first to remove protection.

kater-v Is far as I recon the beginning of that story (very messy with a lot of unconfirmed reports) Katya came from Kirghizia with her mama. Her granny was also mentioned. But no word about father.
