YouTube Music is a relatively new online music and video streaming service that replaces Google's previous Google Play Music. It offers users a free tier with ads included. And with YouTube Music, you can access a wide range of content, including listening to official songs, albums, playlists, artist radios, remixes, live versions of songs, and watching music videos.
What is a music video? A music video is the most direct form in which an artist can convey the idea of a song. I think it must also be very attractive to you for music videos that have a strong visual impact as well as through careful design. So is it possible to download all the music videos we like and save them to a USB? Yes, it is possible! That's what this article is going to show you, how to save your favorite YouTube Music videos to your computer in their original quality as well as in MP4 format and then easily transfer them to a USB. Read on!
Generally speaking, if you want to play music videos from YouTube Music offline, you need to have a YouTube Premium or YouTube Music Premium account through a paid subscription. This way, you can choose your favorite videos to download and then play them offline without being connected to the internet. Of course, this does not mean that you have access to these videos. You still can't use them outside of the YouTube Music app, for example by transferring them to a USB and then connecting them to another device for playback. Your access to these videos will be lost when your Premium account expires unless you have an uninterrupted subscription to YouTube or YouTube Music.
So how do I save these videos permanently and transfer them to a USB for storage at will? You need the help of a powerful third-party tool, the TunePat YouTube Music Converter, a new product this year from TunePat Software, a company specializing in audio and video converters. This product is designed to help both free and paid users of YouTube Music extract tracks, albums, playlists, and videos from YouTube Music and download them in a common, unprotected format. The program has many advantages including, but not limited to, offering 10x speed conversion, batch conversion, and accurate ID3 tag recognition and retention technology.
