YouTube to MP4A

Anyone know a good YouTube to MP4a converter? I want to download some songs from youtube videos, problem is all of these songs are licensed and every MP4a converter I can find online gives me some vague error message whenever I try to convert them.

>Inb4 download these songs from Pirate Bay
I want the exact versions I see on youtube.

youtube-dl -x

put gen in front of your youtube link. for example if the link is youtube.com/watch?v=XUhVCoTsBaM you would make it genyoutube.com/watch?v=XUhVCoTsBaM

4k downloader (or somethibg like that). Dunnobif it supports mp4a but you can convert after downloading right

-xf bestaudio[ext=m4a] url

Yt only has 128kb music

wrong
they have ~160

Some videos uploaded by record labels have 256kbps AAC.

never seen those can you link any?

Formats 141 and 172 are 256 Kbps, as listed here genyoutube.net/formats-resolution-youtube-videos.html

441kbps AAC here.

Here's another. youtube.com/watch?v=DoS_pLHVEds

It weird though, when I downloaded these files a few years ago the highest quality was 256kbps. Now it's over 400kbps. Just download it with -x --audio-format m4a.

Bestaudio chooses the wrong format here, you have to limit it to m4a.

m4a is crappier

> mp3
> audio not .m4a even though given the option

yeah someone dun goofed alright

>Mfw I tried to minimize the 4k video downloader and realised it was a webM

Why do I always do this?

say what

NewPipe on android.

Gulag/Youtube often keeps higher formatted/source video's to release higher quality of said video's later.

>Oncy they flipped a switch the majority of users suddenly had 60hz video's even though they uploaded them months ago.

they may but they are not available, plus most of the music there came from a shitty mp3
i mean c'mon

How are you allowed to post here?

No, but I'm sure OP would download a car.
