More details to this question:
This happened in North Carolina. My friend had to talk to her insurance company about a claim and was informed the conversation would be recorded, now she'd like to hear the actual recording and she was wondering if she had to the right to a copy of it.

Why? If your friend wanted to do so, she could have recorded her own phone call. If the insurance company made a recording it is for their own internal use and your friend is not entitled to any copies absent a lawsuit, assuming that the recorded call would be relevant to some issue.

The recording of the conversation is the property of the person or company making the recording...not both parties. The only two ways I know that you could get the conversation are: 1. They voluntarily give it to her 2. She sues them for some legitimate reason where the conversation is material to the lawsuit and you subpoena them.
