Many free download sites bring virus infections with them. That’s because often the traditional free download sites are infected. Some believe, that the music promoters upload infected files to try to dissuade you from pirating the music.

So how can you get great music easily, cleanly for free?

First use YouTube to find a video of your favourite track.

Even oldies and classical music can be found in the vast YouTube library.

What we want is to strip the audio track from the video.

Let’s take an old track from the 70’s as an example. Search YouTube for ‘White Plains’ or ‘My Baby Loves Love’  You may have to skip the ads but once the video starts to play highlight and copy the URL or web address of the video.

Now head over to a website called www.youtube-mp3.org

In that page delete out the sample address in the convert box

 

Paste in your video address that you just copied from YouTube.

 Press the Convert video button and in a few minutes you can Download (click Descargar) the mp3 track stripped from the video, completely free of any infection.

The music will be saved in your default Downloads folder though you can choose.

For keyboard shortcuts use Ctrl+C to Copy highlighted text and Ctrl+V to Paste
