Did you ever find a song you were looking for but it was only in a video format? Or maybe, it was a specific clip from a live show you liked the sound of? Yeah, I faced such situations, too. I had these videos from my friend’s concert and I wanted to listen to those recordings in the MP3 format.
But when I started looking for a tool that would do that for me, I could find only two options. The first one was complex professional programs that required some skills and knowledge I didn’t have. Moreover, they often were paid, and I didn’t really want to pay anything for just having the sound extracted from videos. Especially, considering that I needed that for my own use, and the sound wasn’t that high-quality. The second option was online tools that were either filled with malware or not working. I also stumbled upon a couple of tools that were paid or asked for my phone number for some reason. I discarded these instantly and battled the malware I had managed to catch during my search.
But suddenly, I found it. I found a free Youtube to MP3 converter that doesn’t infect your device with malware and asks for nothing in return for the job it does. It is easy to use, pleasant, rather fast, and multifunctional. The name for it is oDownloader, and let me tell you about it in detail.
How does oDownloader work?
This tool offers a very simple interface that will be easy to understand for anyone. Once you open the oDownloader’s site, you can see different features on the top of the page. Here you’ll see “Youtube Downloader” — that’s what we need for converting videos to MP3. Hover your mouse over this feature and you’ll see the drop-down menu where you’ll notice the “Youtube to MP3” option. Choose it to convert your videos to MP3 files.
After you click that option, you’ll see a page with an empty field that’s asking you what you would like to convert. Copy the link to the Youtube video you want to extract the sound from and paste it into that field. The tool will then begin processing your link, and you’ll need to wait a bit. Usually, this doesn’t take long — a 10-minute clip took just a couple of seconds. Then you’ll be able to choose the quality of the sound. And finally, you’ll be able to download the file. A piece of pie!
That’s not the only feature of oDownloader. You can also use it to download videos from Youtube, Facebook, and Instagram. The processing will take more time than in the case of converting to the MP3 format. But trust me, it will be worth the wait. You’ll be able to choose the quality for the lossless download, and the video will be saved completely and in the quality you’ve picked. I’ve used this feature a couple of times already to download long videos that I watched later during a couple of flights I had. And it was really great for me to lift boredom off my shoulders while traveling to another place.
Finally, you can use oDownloader to crop Youtube videos and cut parts out of them. This can be useful for creating gifs and memes. To be honest, it’s a brilliant feature because otherwise, you’d need to use some complex or even paid tool.
Should you download oDownloader?
As you arrive at the oDownloader’s site, you’ll notice the offer to download this tool. The service promises that by installing the program on your computer you’ll receive better download and processing speed. In my opinion, you should install oDownloader if you will use it often. It will help you get videos and MP3 files way faster and in a much more convenient way.
To draw the bottom line, oDownloader is a great tool, and I’m really happy I stumbled upon it. It’s extremely useful, simple, and, what’s truly important, safe to use. It doesn’t contain any malware, doesn’t ask you for any money, and even an email or phone number. You won’t be overwhelmed by spam from this tool. And if that’s not the most valuable thing even in the reality of the modern internet, I don’t know what is.
