1. Free YouTube to MP3 Converter

Even the name of this converter has the word “free” in it, which is a good start. This converter lets you add multiple files to it for conversion, which can then be left untouched until it’s finished. The converter even has an option to download (and convert) entire channels from YouTube, but this may be time-consuming depending on the number of videos. Nonetheless a great feature!

Pros

Cons
