how to convert youtube to mp3 ? - 06/19/17 03:55 PM

The old site I used for a long time will no longer permit this feature. Is there one that is currently operable to convert and download?

I use Wondershare to download the youtube video to my desktop. Then I use "all2mp3" to convert it to a MP3 file. Works flawlessly and both programs are free. Oh yes, these are programs I use on my Macs.

That one hasn't worked for me in over a year. Message says it is out of my jurisdiction.

That's odd. I use it often. I just tried it and it worked fine!

Interesting, that's the one I have used for years and I get the same message about out of my jurisdiction. Maybe it's a Florida thing.

I'm using "HD Downloader" on my Android phone. It's a bit advert heavy but usually works quite well and can download to a location of your choice in MP3 or various video formats. Problem is I've just done a search of Google Play looking for an app of this name with the correct logo (red background with white circle containing solid single down arrow pointing to a tray)(grphics very similar to the logo on this page https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.turbo.videodownloader but this is not the same app) and cannot find it at all! It might have been on my phone at the start which suggests it comes with Android. My phone is a UK provider "own brand" (EE "Harrier", made by Benq) with a pretty much standard install of Android 5.x.

On my PC I use a 2 stage process, firstly get the video using "Youtube Downloader HD" which is all over the place including http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Download-Managers/Youtube-Downloader-HD.shtml and then use WinFF to convert to a suitable format. WinFF also on SoftPedia http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Video/Encoders-Converter-DIVX-Related/WinFF.shtml

Does the all2mp3 software have to be downloaded onto my PC?

I just went to YouTube, picked a Jerry Lee Lewis song, and downloaded it just fine with YOUTUBETOMP3 converter. Very strange that some are not able to use it.

I use, on a Mac, a tool called "YTD" (YouTube Downloader). Be careful where you download it from thought, I had a version of this install some spamware once ... luckily it was the kind that I know how to remove on a Mac.

I don't have/know the exact "correct" site at the moment (I'm away from my computer)

Yes, Tony. It is a separate program and can be used to convert several formats to MP3s. Wondershare works really nice for downloading the youtube video which can then be converted to the MP3. I usually don't keep the video.

Guys,
I don't use a website. I have two programs:
1. wondershare which will download youtube videos
2. All2MP3 which converts various formats to MP3s

I have used these programs for nearly 5 years or more. All2MP3
came from CNET.com a very reputable site.
Wondershare comes from wondershare.com

You've given me that info in your last post ...
Thank you ...

Don mentioned this to the group a while ago. I've been using it ever since with great results. Just remember to be careful what you're clicking on on the main screen. Also, lately, I've had other screens open up when I use it that invite me to click on the new window links and enter some mysterious looking dungeons. I just X out the pop-up windows and go back to the main screen.

Tony, not sure you know it started as a Florida thing but when I used it there and came back to Rhode Island in the spring I took the problem from Florida back with me. smile So now it's a 2 state problem smile

Just tried it again. Notta. "We are sorry, this service is not available from your jurisdiction."

I'm wondering if it's an AT&T block.

Still no joy here and I'm on Comcast.
However, I have been using this http://www.youtubeinmp3.com with great success.

It's what you do after you download the songs that matters...
all must be edited in so many ways to conform to performance standards..

Aside from downloading MP3s for break music, how do you guys use this?

All I do with them is play them on break, or use them to learn the songs. I don't use them for background while I play.

Re: how to convert youtube to mp3 ? - 06/22/17 02:20 PM

Donny, my response was essentially, all that editing don't mean $hit if you cannot download the song because of glitches in the download program. And, most of the songs downloaded from you tube, at least for me, are used to learn the song - I have never used an MP3 on the job other than for very short breaks. So two to five minutes of an original downloaded from you tube and converted to an MP3 really doesn't amount to anything.

Now, if you are doing DJ or KJ work, and require the highest quality, you would likely not be getting the songs from You Tune in the first place - most likely you would be purchasing them from an online source, and they, most likely, wouldn't require editing, at least I would hope they wouldn't. And, if you were to download a song from You Tube, edit that song, then use it for a DJ job, you would be breaking the law, get sued or fined - not a good thing.

All the best,

Gary cool

I think we are talking about two different things, or purposes here.
I'm just referring to hearing a song on YouTube that I like and would like to have on my own computer. I simple copy the URL to the program, and it automatically converts it and I can download it as an MP3 to my computer. It is the original recording, not tracks or intros or parts!

Just click on the icon copy the URL and convert.
