The best free YouTube converter 2017

It's easy to spend hours watching new videos on YouTube when you have a reliable internet connection, but if you're going to be offline, you might want to save a collection of clips to watch later on your PC, tablet, games console, or smartphone. That's when you need a free YouTube converter.

The best YouTube converters include preset profiles to take the guesswork out of choosing the optimum format, resolution, and compression settings for your device.

The installation process is speedy, and once up and running you'll be presented with a colourful Windows 10-like grid that clearly presents the available options. From there you can dive straight into aTune Catcher's video conversion utility for converting to another file format, or convert the soundtrack to an MP3 for audio playback. This part of aTube Catcher's interface isn't as attractive as some other YouTube video converters, but that hardly matters.

Once you've chosen a format, drag in the files you want to convert and right-click Start to set them going. You can prioritize certain clips to have them converted first, or simply leave it to work on the queued files from top to bottom.

Free YouTube to MP3 Converters - Free-Youtube
