How to Convert YouTube to MP3

With so many musicians and content creators premiering their latest work on YouTube, the site has become the first port of call for many of us who want to hear the latest music and media. 

However, our favorite videos may get taken down by their creators, or we might not have a reliable internet connection to enjoy these videos when we want to. This is where a YouTube converter for Mac and PC comes in useful. These let you rip videos and audio straight from YouTube to your preferred file size and format, allowing you to access these files locally whenever you like. 

Converting YouTube videos to MP3 also helps you save disk space by only downloading the audio portion of a video, thereby greatly reducing the file size. 

With a YouTube converter for Mac and Windows like Airy, you can use the service’s browser integration to easily download unlimited videos as MP3 files with a few simple steps.
