How to remove music from videos?

I got a lot of good songs I want to use for both AMVs and my own MP3 player..! The problem is, they're stuck with videos. I read somewhere that you could use VirtualDubMod to remove a few of them but because of some copyright problems with Windows it does not work on files like WMV, which is the version that almost all of the videos I got are in. Is there any other way/program/solution for this?

Heck, you might be able to extract the audio stream with GraphEdit.

If they're .WMV files, you can do it though WMM. But that turn's them into a .WMA, not MP3. Of course, there are ways to deal with that too.

Well, forgive me that I'm an idiot then but that does not help me at all.
I downloaded eo-video but I still have no idea what to do with it.

Well, I can't tell you how to work EO-Video. But in Movie Maker, just Import the video, then drag it from the Collections to to the Audio track, not the Video track. (Of course, you can drag it back and forth between the Audio and Video tracks.) Then choose Save To My Computer and select a file and folder destination. Click next, click the Other Settings button and choose High quality audio (160 Kbps), you may have to click on "Show More Choices". Click Next and it will save the audio to your HDD as a .WMA file. Hopefully your MP3 player software will convert it from .WMA. If not, download CDex, uncompress the file (.WMA to .WAV), then recompress it (.WAV to .MP3). It's a simple program you should be able to figure out. Good luck.
