Downloading content from YouTube can be straightforward for a YouTube Premium or YouTube Music Premium member because they can directly save a video to their device as they desire. But YouTube Premium plan still has some restrictions, one of which is not allowing you to download a video to MP3.

To break down these barriers, we have prepared some alternative ways to help you download music from YouTube. After that, you can add the song to your iTunes, Garageband, iMovie, Phone, or CD as you desire.
