You cannot select audio formats and the audio file type
on the command line. See
AudioRecorder for a version that has more advanced options.
Due to a bug in the Sun jdk1.3/1.4, this program does not work
with it.

is followed by returning from 'run()', and thus, the thread
is terminated automatically.
It's not a good idea to call this method just 'stop()'

/** Main working method.
You may be surprised that here, just 'AudioSystem.write()' is
called. But internally, it works like this: AudioSystem.write()
contains a loop that is trying to read from the passed
AudioInputStream. Since we have a special AudioInputStream
that gets its data from a TargetDataLine, reading from the
AudioInputStream leads to reading from the TargetDataLine. The
data read this way is then written to the passed File. Before
writing of audio data starts, a header is written according
to the desired audio file type. Reading continues untill no
more data can be read from the AudioInputStream. In our case,
this happens if no more data can be read from the TargetDataLine.
This, in turn, happens if the TargetDataLine is stopped or closed
(which implies stopping). (Also see the comment above.) Then,
the file is closed and 'AudioSystem.write()' returns.
