MP3 or MP4: which one do you need?

Choose MP3 when…

You only want the sound: music, podcasts, lectures or anything you plan to listen to offline. MP3 files play on almost every phone, car stereo and computer.

Choose MP4 when…

You want the picture too. For that, use our YouTube to MP4 converter and pick a quality from 144p to 1080p.

Good to know before you convert

  • Three bitrate options

    320 kbps is the best choice for music. 256 and 128 kbps make smaller files if you prefer them.

  • Long recordings

    Podcasts, mixes and talks that run for hours work too, with files up to 2 GB.

  • Shorts and music links

    Links to Shorts, YouTube Music tracks and share links from the app all work.

  • Playlists

    A playlist link saves only the video it points to, not the whole list.
