Marilyn,
First, you'll have to find a way to separate the audio file from the
video on your DVD. You may not be able to get at just the audio
file, and it may turn out that the only way to separate the audio
from the video is to record the audio with some recording software
(for which you may have to search and pay probably a small fee) in
REAL TIME, while playing the DVD on your computer.
So start by determining whether there are separate audio files on the DVD.
Once you have got the audio file in digital form and on your
computer, the easiest way I can think of is to dump it into iTunes
and have iTunes convert it to an mp3 file.
Then all you need is an iPod of some type, like the Shuffle. The
cheapest one has something like a 1Gig drive and clips on your
waistband/lapel/shirt pocket and costs around $50. iTunes will allow
you to plug the little Shuffle into your computer through its dock
with USB2, and transfer the sound file into it. (They are cute as
hell, lemme tell you. They come in cute anodized colors, too, like
pink and purple, at no additional cost.)
