Recording audio from a YouTube link?

[Boomyal]

Is this possible? Is there a format it should be recorded to for purposes of copying it to a CD or DVD for later replay on a computer?

Sure is. You can do the download with this: YTD Video Converter. I use the free version.

And here is a tutorial on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4RJqzOJZpc

For sound only, convert it to MP3.

If you just google "youtube to mp3" there are tons of web site that will do it for you. Just enter the youtube URL and click a button and it churns for a sec and then gives you an MP3 download link. Works great, I do it all the time.

I must of have hit it luckly one day. Every music video I selected had a click option to down load the song. So I down load a lot of older classic rock music. Since that time they must have removed that down load option because I never seen it again...

I downloaded the converter and am now listening to Tex Williams singing Smoke, Smoke, Smoke that cigarette from my hard drive! Thanks. I wanted to copy this to a CD to give to a friend who smokes like a chimney.

I was doing this a couple of years ago and I found the sound quality to be lacking. I believe I noticed smaller file sizes per song which would indicate they are lower quality as well, right?
