Basic command prompt knowledge is required.
The end results are 96kbps audio files. These music are the exact rip from the game itself, but since the musics are played as a background music in-game, you might not notice the bad music quality in-game. If you are expecting quality music, then you might be disappointed.

Procedures
- Find and copy the sounds_common.vpp_pc file to a working folder on your PC that's easy to access (in this guide, I'll be putting all the files on my desktop). It resides in steamappscommonSaints Row the Thirdpackfilespccachesounds_common.vpp_pc (around 600MB+).
These are all the required files.
- Unpack the .zip tools.
- For bnk_tools.zip, all you need is bnk_pc_extractor.exe.
- For volition.zip, all you need is the bin_sr3 folder.
- For ww2ogg.zip, all you need is the ww2ogg.exe.
- Open up command prompt, navigate to the bin_sr3 folder, and run this command:>Gibbed.SaintsRow3.UnpackVPP.exe ../sounds_common.vpp_pc
Once this is done, you should have a new folder appeared in bin_sr3 folder. Move that folder to up one directory. Your original directory should look like this.
Inside the sounds_common folder should have a lot of .bnk_pc files.
- The radio station musics are in the radio__media.bnk_pc files. I will extract one of the stations in this guide, just repeat for the rest.
In the command prompt, navigate to the folder for the bnk_pc_extractor.exe, and run this command:>bnk_pc_extractor.exe sound_common/radio_klassic_media.bnk_pc
You should get a lot of .wav files in the sounds_common folder.
Repeat this step for all the radio__media.bnk_pc files.
- These .wav files are compress files. You will need to uncompress them into codec-readable format. In command prompt, use this command:>ww2ogg.exe sounds_common/radio_klassic_media_00000.wav
Once that is done, you will find radio_klassic_media_00000.ogg in the same folder as the radio_klassic_media_00000.wav file.
Repeat this step for all the radio__media_.wav files.
- (Optional) If you got the right codec installed in your system, you can play the .ogg file directly. If you wish to copy into an MP3 player or your phone, use something to convert the .ogg files into MP3. I recommend using Format Factory to do it.
