because it's marked as "unsafe" in QC Leopard. This
causes it to not
work in Safari, for example, because someone could
maliciously use it
to make a remote recorder without your consent.
.. or you could record copy-protected material, which
I'm sure is more of an issue for Apple...
Call my a cynic....
I'm normally a proud supporter of healthy doses of cynicism, but to
Apple's defense I don't think that Copy Protection was high on their
list of reasons to remove this feature. There are many tools the do
exactly what you're describing, and in a much higher quality than
anyone could ever hope to achieve from the Audio Input patch. With
just 14 bands, even at 60 fps one would be hard-pressed to make a
recording of anything that would sound good :)
More likely, they simply picked a policy like "If it's content
generated by the user, without positive action on their part, it's
unsafe" -- meaning that video, audio, and file-read/write access is
blacklisted, while mouse and keyboard access is not -- and then stuck
with it exactly. It's a good policy, too. Java Applets and Flash
Animations are similarly sandboxed for similar (if not identical)
reasons.
