I have just bought a new laptop and on this machine microphone and headphones share one jack socket.

Previously, I would just connect headphones to mic with a jack lead and record streaming audio with Audacity, monitoring with a splitter.

Any ideas how I can record streaming?

Is there a reasonably priced software solution whereby it can be done internally without jacks?

The laptop has USB and HDMI, can either of these be used for audio input/output?
