Frequently Asked Questions

Is it legal to convert YouTube videos to MP3?
Downloading and converting YouTube videos may violate YouTube's Terms of Service. Only convert videos you own, have permission to convert, or are available under Creative Commons licenses. Always respect copyright laws and the content creator's rights.
What bitrate should I choose?
For most uses, 192 kbps is recommended as it provides good quality with reasonable file sizes. For music, consider 256 or 320 kbps for better quality. For speech or podcasts, 128 kbps may be sufficient.
Can I convert private or age-restricted videos?
No, private videos, age-restricted content, and videos that require sign-in cannot be converted. Only publicly available videos can be converted to MP3.
How long does the conversion take?
Conversion time depends on the video length. Short videos (under 5 minutes) typically convert within 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Longer videos may take several minutes. Very long videos (over 1 hour) may take 5-10 minutes or more.
Can I convert entire playlists?
Currently, this tool converts individual videos only. To convert a playlist, you would need to convert each video separately using its individual video URL.
What is the maximum video length?
There's no hard limit on video length, but very long videos (over 2 hours) may take significantly longer to process and may timeout. For best results, try videos under 2 hours in length.
Will the MP3 quality match the original video?
The MP3 quality will depend on both the original video's audio quality and your selected bitrate. YouTube videos typically have good audio quality, and selecting higher bitrates (256 or 320 kbps) will preserve more of that quality in the MP3 file.
Are my conversions secure?
Yes, all file processing happens securely on our servers. Videos are downloaded and converted temporarily, and files are not stored permanently. We prioritize your privacy and security.
