YT Music Downloader is a Windows program that simplifies downloading videos and music from YouTube.

YT Music Downloader lets you download videos and/or audio from YouTube. The program is geared toward music, so you can save music videos (or any videos really) or convert those videos to just music, and the app will automatically save them in the MP3 format. Provided an appropriate YouTube link, the program is very fast at converting and saving these items to file, and once done, you have access to this music offline and via any others devices to which you transfer these files.

It’s worth noting that where YT Music Downloader really excels is with music and not video. People who listen to music via YT waste a lot of bandwidth, and if that matters to you, then this is a great solution to avoid that. Although it handles the download of videos well enough, for users who will focus on video, there are a number of other YouTube downloaders available that are much more video-centric.

Nevertheless, YT Music Downloader is very good at what it does, and although it’s not the most sophisticated app of its kind, that works in its favor. If you hear a song on YouTube and want to grab it quick without a hassle, then few applications will do that better than this one will. The quality options — low, medium and high — are rather basic, and if you’re someone who wants more control over the quality and characteristics of your MP3 files, you won’t find that here.

YT Music Downloader is also susceptible to YouTube standards. Sometimes the service will make a change, and this program won’t work as well or at all until an update accounts for those changes. The program can be a bit finicky as well. It works quite well 99 percent of the time, but then you’ll come across a video it just doesn’t like and won’t work with no matter how much you try. This is rare, though, and, considering how convenient the app is, isn’t a deal-breaker. However, if you do come across a video like this, try a couple of other videos to ensure this isn’t a YouTube standards problem.

Pros

  • Download music from YouTube
  • Fast and easy to use
  • Automatically save new files as MP3s

Cons

  • Can be finicky
