Youtube mp3 download/extraction

livEwirE

Hi all,

I use firefox with Windows and am wondering what are people are using right now to extract MP3s from youtube videos. I was previously using several websites to do this but a lot have been taken down. Are there any good alternatives or firefox plugins that are proven to work right now?

Cheers for any suggestions:D

I dont think this can convert video to mp3. I have the pro version of this and it's great for video conversion though.

I stand to be corrected. it does. It must have updated this feature as originally it didn't do this. I've had this software for years and TIL

They've really kicked it up a notch this year! Still pretty much ignoring USENET for some reason.

They'll cop on eventually though that if they'd just drop prices and made media super simple to get, they'd cut out alot of the illegal stuff.

It's still easier to get stuff free than to pay for it ffs!

When are ye gonna kick up the pace of updates abit? Make it like the verge, actually no, they're gone a bit crappy lately, to much Apple on it, like the lovely new PC World? They've done a nice job on it's new look.

Oh dear.. I had no idea about this
Yeah so true. And iTunes makes it so complicated to own digital media, purchased or pirated. I just don't understand why I can't have the files and just drag and drop

Bosh

Enter the video url & it'll give you the option to save as Mp3.

Google are removing all these extensions from Chrome and Android store and making legal threats against websites

I know you use Firefox but anyone who needs a Chrome extension, this one is great and updated very quickly when Youtube changes stuff

There's just two of us. We do want to update more often but we're up to our eyeballs a lot of the time. You should see more updates for the next while. And in the background we are working on a new design. Thanks for noticing us though
