While you may not want to download another app, using an installed video-converter app tends to be safer and more reliable when it comes to ripping audio from YouTube videos. And if you choose to download software for ripping audio, be sure to have your chosen antivirus service scan the software for threats before installing or using it. While we do our best to recommend safe services that don’t engage in such activities, if you notice that your system is running hotter or harder than usual during visits to these sites, you should make sure that you don’t stay on them for longer than necessary. It’s also important to know that some of the YouTube-ripping sites out there may contain malware and/or use money-making practices like cryptomining. There are ways to enjoy music from YouTube without violating its terms of use, such as via Google’s YouTube Music service - so we do recommend that you consider trying legitimate options first.
We do need to issue this warning first: Ripping audio from YouTube is a breach of the streaming video site’s terms of use, which could get you into trouble.
