i know any audio editor will do it but i think there are apps designed for the purpose that allow 'one click' capture and convert to mp3. anyone have any experience in this?'

If any of our Linux users want to know how to do this, it's simple:
Start the YouTube playing, hit pause and wait until the song has finished streaming. Then, without closing your browser, find the /tmp folder in your file system and the .mp3 will be there waiting for you to save it.

Is it just me? My whole system freezes and I have to hardware-reset my system (XP-SP3 on an Intel quadcore) whenever I try to use Freerecorder 4.
Too bad....
I looked at their site and they seem to have some real nice software and I would be interested in buying a software suit from them. The fact that the free, simple Freerecorder f***s up my system puts me down.
I wanted to put some videos on my son's mp4-player.

russ, the advantage is its a 'one click' solution. and no long tails to trim. it even does audio format conversions.
mike, you might run the problem through their tech support people. its well worth your trouble.

I put a "3" in the "y" of youtube url address, on enter hit it will open a web site with a menu of the original formats available for the YT video, download your choice. After I use Total Video Converter for batch or single mp3 conversion. It bring me a lot of options and is fast!. Example: original YouTube url: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLHoFoRudOM&fmt=18 now substitute "3" for "Y", it will read: http://www.3outube.com/watch?v=FLHoFoRudOM&fmt=18 - Hit enter for download the video - Use your favorite format converter. - You done Carlos

Carlos, that little trick has made my day. I wonder how long it will be before You Tube nail that trapdoor shut?
Is Total Video Converter just as clever and useful?
Thanks again. I wish I had known this 12 months ago.
Cheers,
John

Hi John, I am glad it work for you too, I think same about it, wondering myself how time more it will be making the trick for us. I also discovered it recently. Although I haven't tried many other more, TVC does work enuf good for me, lot of formats, from old traditional commun ones to iPOD, iPhones etc. Also is fast and very tweakable for custom settings.

Yeah, there are programs for you to capture music from YouTube as mp3 files by simply clicking buttons. You could find the programs with the name of Audacity, Freecorder, Streaming Audio Recorder, etc.

There is a freeware program available on CNET.COM named MP3ROCKET which does what you want. Everybody I've talked to who uses it just loves it.
There's also a paid version, but from what I hear, the free version is uncrippled

Something must be set wrong or you have a conflict with some software. I have upgraded to Windows 7 but ran Free Recorder on the very same set up you had without problems. You might want to remove and reinstall or contact their support to see if they can assist. It really is a pretty cool and useful program.

Hi, a lot of programs with “record” functions allow you to capture youtube music by simply clicking buttons. Before you record, you may set the output audio files as MP3. You can type the keywords of capture YouTube music and then find some useful directions on your internet browser.
