Is there any safe YouTube to MP3 converter recommended in 2025?

In fact, many people are looking for ways to convert YouTube to MP3, but they don't want to use those online converters full of ads or install third-party software. I have tried a very unpopular but practical method before - recording audio with Google Drive.

The method is actually very simple. I did it like this:

1. First open Google Drive, then create a Google Meet meeting (just create an empty one, just one person).
2. Play the video I want to convert to MP3 on YouTube and adjust the volume to the appropriate level.
3. Click "Start Recording" in Google Meet, and let the YouTube video play to completion.
4. After the recording is completed, an MP4 video file will be automatically generated in Google Drive.
5. Finally, I use the audio extraction function that comes with Windows or VLsCs to easily convert MP4 to MP3. Done!

In this way, there are no pop-up ads during the whole process, and there is no need to worry about viruses and other problems. Although it cannot be converted in batches, this method is really convenient for some treasured music or podcasts. And the sound quality depends entirely on the original video, and it won't be as terrible as some YouTube to MP3 websites.

Of course, this method is suitable for those who are not in a hurry to download in batches. If you often need to convert a large amount of audio, you may still have to find a more professional YouTube to MP3 tool. But if you occasionally want to download a few good songs and don't want to toss, this method is really stable.
