About this downloader

What you can save from YouTube Music

SaveVideo’s YouTube Music downloader saves one song at a time from music.youtube.com, as an MP3 file or as an MP4 video. Paste the song’s link, choose the format, and the file downloads in your browser, with no account and nothing to install.

MP3 to listen, MP4 to watch

MP3 keeps only the sound, which is what you want in a music player or in the car. MP4 keeps the picture as well, in up to 1080p for songs under 10 minutes, and in 360p or lower for songs of 10 minutes or more.

One song per link

The YouTube Music downloader saves single songs. Open the song inside the album or playlist, copy its own link and paste that. If the link you copied still names the playlist, SaveVideo takes the song it points to.

Choosing the bitrate

SaveVideo gives you one MP3 per song and picks the bitrate for you. If you want to choose it yourself, from 128 to 320 kbps, or cut a song down to a ringtone, SaveMP3, our sister site for audio, does both.

Limits that apply

YouTube Music links follow the same rules as YouTube on the website: MP3 for songs and mixes up to 4 hours long, and 3 free downloads per hour.

FAQ

Questions about downloading from YouTube Music

Can I download a whole album from YouTube Music?

Not in one go. SaveVideo saves one song per link. Open the album, play the first song, copy that song’s link and paste it here. Repeat for each track you want. Each song counts as one of your free YouTube downloads.

Do I need YouTube Music Premium?

No. The YouTube Music downloader doesn’t sign in to YouTube Music, so no account or subscription is involved on your side. It reads the song the way a visitor who isn’t signed in would, so it can only save songs that play without signing in.

Can I save a long DJ mix?

Yes, as MP3, if the mix is up to 4 hours long. As a video, a mix of 10 minutes or more comes in 360p or lower, up to 3 hours. For longer mixes, or for HD video of a long mix, the free SaveVideo.net Helper for Chrome has no length limit.

Quick trick

Type “vid” before youtube.com

On any YouTube video, add vid in front of youtube.com in the address bar and press Enter. The video opens here, ready to download.
