Is YouTube to MP3 Legal? (Important Notice)
Converting YouTube to MP3 is not automatically illegal, but it strongly depends on what you download and how you use the file.
- YouTube’s Terms of Service do not allow downloading videos unless YouTube itself provides a download button or link.
- Saving and converting copyrighted videos without the creator’s permission may violate copyright laws in your country.
- The safest way to use any YouTube to MP3 converter is to download:
- your own videos,
- copyright-free or royalty-free content,
- or videos where the creator clearly allows downloading and reuse.
Always respect the rights of creators and follow the laws that apply where you live. This tool is provided for personal, legal use only.

Note: Why some YouTube videos cannot be converted
Even though this YouTube to MP3 converter supports multiple formats, it cannot successfully process every single video on the platform. Some YouTube content is protected or delivered in a way that prevents third-party tools from generating a direct download link.
This can happen with:
- official music tracks and label-protected videos,
- age-restricted or region-locked content,
- private or unlisted uploads,
- paid or members-only videos,
- auto-generated mixes and playlist “radio” links.
When you try to convert this type of content, the tool may display an error such as “Download link not found”. This limitation is controlled by YouTube’s own systems and the rights holder of the video, not by this website or the Visolix plugin.
Please only convert videos you have the right to download and always respect copyright and YouTube’s Terms of Service.
