Bass Thumper's original wording was about "converting the video file to an MP3 file".
Note the use of the word file.

What Mike initially wrote was "convert a video file to MP3" then later "convert video to mp3".

The file conversion from YouTube video to mp3 audio is not a lossless process ... it will, of course, lose/discard the video part, but the file is converted.

I agree wholeheartedly about the "Newton Meters and Pound Feet" observation, but I also note that the same damage can be done by reinterpreting the text into something it never was.
