Help with weird noise that started yesterday

That is an A/V clip, you can hear the noise. It sounds like it is coming from the main pulley but I am not positive. Just wondering if anyone has any ideas and if I need to not drive. The belts themselves are in good condition and are tight.

Once you find out what the problem is, report back to us on it.

Well, I figured out what was causing it... or rather it decided to give me another, much more obvious clue. Just started the car, didn't even get into gear and I hear the distinctive pop of a belt breaking. Immediately turn the car off and pop the hood, both belts are off. Jack her up, get the wheel off, and pull the belts out. P/S belt is snapped, main belt only jumped the track.
So I figure with the belts off why not turn everything by hand and see if anything makes noise. Turn the alternator, nothing, turn the compressor, nothing, turn the power steering, nothing. Then I looked down from the top and saw my problem.
It's kind of hard to tell in the picture but the main crank pulley is not spinning in a level circle, one edge is closer to the block than the edge on the opposite side of the pulley.
Then I looked at it again from the side.
Can you see it? The rubber inside of the main crank pulley is all rotted out and now the outer ring has separated from the inner part that connects it to the engine.
