MP4 to MP3

Sound without the picture, straight from a YouTube link.

By using this site you confirm you have the right to download the file you request.

How it works

  1. 1

    Paste the YouTube link

    The video the audio belongs to.

  2. 2

    Pick a bitrate

    The Audio tab lists what the source can produce.

  3. 3

    Save the MP3

    Only the audio is fetched — the video stream is never downloaded.

YouTube links, not files from your device

This page converts a YouTube address. There is no upload box, so an MP4 sitting on your phone or laptop cannot be converted here — better to say so now than after you have waited. For your own files, a desktop tool is the right answer.

Why go straight to MP3

Downloading the MP4 first means transferring a video stream you are about to throw away — tens of megabytes on a 10-minute clip. Here only the audio is requested, and the result is identical.

Frequently asked questions

Can I upload my own MP4 file?

No. This converts YouTube links only; there is no upload box anywhere on the site.

Is the quality the same as converting the MP4 myself?

Yes. The same audio stream is used — skipping the video just avoids transferring data you would discard.

Do I get the video as well?

No, only the MP3. Use the YouTube to MP4 page for the video.
