I love listening music and always search the resources to find them out. The first tool I use is YouTube. Millions of users upload music videos, news reviews, tutorials etc. to YouTube every day. Even if a music album is just launched chances are there that you can find it on to YouTube. But when I want to download it to my iPod, again I have to think the ways to convert the video of YouTube to mp3. But now no more thinking…sss… I have found a very good tool which converts videos of youtube to mp3 very easily and off course it is FREE OF COST.
I am talking about “YouTube to MP3” converter which I found on Cnet. It is an easy to use tool and will solve all your problems at once. It can not only download a video from youbute but can also convert it to your desired format(s). Here I am going to tell you step-by-step how to use it.
1. The first step is to DOWNLOAD it from Cnet. The size of the file is just 3.77 MB which is not taking too much space of your hard disk.
2. Now open it and run the software to install. You can also create a short cut icon on your desktop or you can go with conventional way to open it from your program menu after installation.
3. When the installation is complete open the “Youtube to MP3” converter software. When you will open it, you will see that two options are available there.
(i) Download video from YouTube and
(ii) Convert video (previously downloaded) from file
Here I am going with option one (i).
4. The next step is to go to YouTube. Open the video you want to convert from YouTube to MP3. Copy the URL from YouTube site. Come to “Youtube to MP3” converter software and click on the “PASTE” button. It will automatically take the URL you have just copied from youtube. For example – I have chosen a music video of Britney Spears.
You can select the folder where you want it to perform the task. After selection of your desired folder click on “DOWNLOAD” button.
5. After clicking on the download button you will see that window of the software will be working like this.
It will show you the details like progress percentage and estimated time of download.
6. After finishing of the download you will see a brief summery of the job done. Now click on “Open Folder” and select the location where you want to save it. Then go to “Convert the download files(s)” option and proceed further with “Finish” button.
Note: Before using “Convert the download file(s) now” option don’t rename the file names. It may cause the failure of the task.
7. You will be headed to the next step, just like picture below.
Hence you will see a thumbnail of the downloaded video with duration, format, name and other details. You can add more video/files as well by “Add” button. When you are done click the “Next” button.
8. In the next window a number of options are available to convert the video(s) of YouTube to MP3, WAV, WMA, OGG, OAC, M4A, FLAC and MP2 formats. You can select the folder you want to save the converted YouTube to MP3 files (or other formats).
Now click the “Convert” button. The window will show you that the video(s) is being converted to you desired format. There is also an option by which you can automatically play the converted YouTube to MP3 files just after completion.
Its 100% free, easy to use and solution to all your requirements. Try it.
