How to rip a YT Video?

[ep2002]

I guess there's no YT forum on here.

So I guess I've learned that YT FB groups JUMP to conclusions before asking questions.

They assume EVERYONE who wants to have a channel & showcase someone else's video while talking about it or rip a video is scamming someone else. <sigh>

My question just got deleted from one FB group & the other group wanted to KNOW if I asked permission from the channel.

So, I guess I have to turn to you guys LOL

There's tons of music on YT even uploaded by the artists themselves.

I listen to New Age music when I sleep & I do NOT want commercials playing while I'm trying to sleep which is why I can't make a playlist of them, plus the volume may be too high/low.

I use Groove to listen to my music.

I found a site that rips the videos into MP3's, but now it's not working & the next site also didn't work.

Does anyone have a free site/software that does NOT give us viruses/trojans?

I have software that rips them into MP4, but not MP3.

Thanks

For grabbing YT videos, I use Firefox with the Video DownloadHelper plugin. You can save the video to pretty much any format, and it's easy-peasy to use.

With "4k video downloader" you can download a whole playlist and then upload all to https://online-audio-converter.com/ to convert mp4 to mp3.
That's what I do.

Any quick and free ways to amend videos so that they pass copyright notice?

You need to use Firefox. Chrome requires a premium version, and they won't allow you to DL from youtube because YT is owned by Google.

If you're on Android, Videoder is the ultimate tool. If not, it can't be that no online tool work for this purpose. If they don't for a moment, there was a Youtube update and they need to catch up. Just search Google for "youtube to mp3", you'll find something for sure. I already found this: https://ytmp3.cc and there are countless others, activate your adblocker and you're good to go.

I use Sound Forge to save audio tracks from video. It's possible to download videos via free services.
I think free Audacity can extract audio as well.

No ads, you can use background play and much more.

Sorry for the delay, I had to wait until I had a friend help me.

While I was able to rip the video to MP4, it didn't convert it to MP3 & so I had to use one of the links below.

Yeh, I haven't even started learning Audacity yet. I need to b/c of recording stuff.

But thanks

Thanks to everyone else for their links.

Some worked better than others.

I have a 3 hour meditation song that I can't convert otherwise I have to pay

I'll figure it out I hope. LOL

Have a good one.
