YouTube is quite popular for streaming the latest and never before seen video footage of music videos or just music, with some awkward backgrounds to match the playing music. Not many people have realised, that YouTube is basically a great place to get free music from. People usually end up downloading the video from YouTube instead of just ripping out the Audio from the video, which they actually need. There’re many sites out there, that support the ripping of audio from the YouTube videos, but usually end up doing half the job and that too not of good quality.

The ones which are good enough, are usually premium sites, which requires the user to subscribe to their services for a fee. After scrounging through all the available sites, and after rigorous testing, I finally landed upon a great converter site, which is most importantly FREE and has tremendous quality of compression and audio bitrate. The video not only gets ripped out, but also no hints of scratches or any sort of noise disturbances are removed as well!

This site allows the user to simply copy paste the link of the video, whose music they want, into the input box on the site and click on “Convert”. There are two radio buttons on the site, which allows you to choose from two options, either:

• Standard Quality [Faster, Smaller size Audio File]
• High Quality [Slower, Higher quality Audio File, Works ONLY with HQ videos on YouTube]

Once you choose the appropriate settings and click on convert, the site fetches the video onto it’s servers, splits the file, converts, decodes and makes a clean MP3 file of the original video and presents it to you in the form of a Download Link, with NO STRINGS attached! Now, that’s something to crow about!

If you thought THAT was awesome, wait till you Firefox users hear this! This site features a FIREFOX PLUGIN! Yes, you heard me.. A handy Video2MP3 extension, adds a nice nifty download link to each YouTube video on the YouTube video page itself! This would save you the time of copying the URL and pasting it onto the Video2MP3 website! A wonderful service, which is absolutely free and easy to use. Happy Music hunting!!
