How to convert a YouTube video longer than 20 minutes to MP3

I recently found out that youtube has a tonne of really amazing audio books online.

In my quest to convert these audio books to mp3 files I soon realised almost none of the websites I had use would allow me to convert a VERY LONG youtube video into a mp3.  Most audio books are like 9+ hours!

I started thinking how would I be able to do this. I remembered I had installed an awesome piece of software called “Freemake Video Converter”. It would take videos on youtube and convert them into anything you wanted. I just couldn’t remember if it would do mp3’s.

I opened it up and found it DID!

Here’s the complete “how to convert a Youtube video longer than 20 minutes to MP3”!

  1. Make sure “Freemake Video Converter” is installed.
  2. Go to youtube and find the video you want to convert to MP3. Copy the URL at the top of the page
    1. I will use this link for my tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NghA0I_MJFA
  3. In Freemake Video Converter Click “Paste URL”
  4. At the bottom click “To MP3”
  5. It will ask you a couple of things
    1. What bitrate you want
    2. Where you want to save the MP3
  6. For Audiobooks 128Kb/sec is fine. I told it to save to a folder on my computer.
  7. Viola. Sit back and let the program do the hard work!
