This article will explore ways of how to download music on your computer or any iOS device and build a diverse music library.
If life is a movie, then we all deserve a stellar soundtrack or, perhaps, even a bunch of them. As music became more and more accessible, it has earned a particularly important role in our lives. We wake up with it. We go to sleep to it. It’s there for us in moments of happiness and it is especially appreciated in times of sadness.
Owning a diverse music library has become less of a ‘want’ and more of a ‘need’, and the audio library YouTube contains is absolutely mind-blowing.
Unlike other musical platforms, YouTube offers an abundance of exclusive content, which includes concert versions of songs, indie covers, and unique remixes in addition to the traditional releases. If YouTube was your roof to the kind of music library you can build, then it would be so high that even Elon Musk would label it impossible to reach.
I am here to give you the right tools so you can easily download YouTube videos to phone or any other device and extract audio from YouTube video.
