You could take your ausio out headphone connection on the phone and run
it into the line in connection on the pc. Then just simply listen to
line in on pc. That's assuming phone has a headphone jack in it.


Yes, the simplest solution is often reasonable!

It's not just assuming the 'phone has a headphone output, though: it's
also assuming the PC has a stereo line in. Most desktop machines will
(blue socket), but most laptops will only have a microphone socket
(pink) - which is often mono. (It may be a three-pole connector, but
that can be just the output bias voltage for electret microphones, not a
stereo input.)
