Step 1: Go to YouTube and Log In

To get started with downloading music from YouTube to MP3, the first thing we need to do is go to youtube.com and log into your account. Once you're there, go to the top right, select your avatar, then go down and select YouTube Studio.

Step 2: Access the Creator Music Section

Once in the Studio, go to the left menu, scroll down, and select Creator Music. Once we're on Creator Music, go to the bottom menu and select "Go back to Audio Library." This will open up the Studio and take us to the YouTube Audio Library, where we can see all the available songs.

Step 3: Explore the YouTube Audio Library

As you can see, it provides the license type so you can use it in videos, including monetized videos. This is good for both long-form videos and YouTube Shorts. You can also listen to these songs by selecting "Play" to hear the songs directly.

Step 4: Download the Song as an MP3 File

To download any of these songs, simply hover over the song, select "Download," and it will allow you to save an MP3 version of that song on your computer.

That's how you download music from YouTube to MP3.
