How to Extract Audio from Video (MP4 to MP3)

AudioVideoConversion

Sometimes you have a great video file, but all you really want is the sound. Whether it's a recorded lecture, a music video, or a podcast episode saved as an MP4, extracting the audio track saves massive amounts of storage space and allows you to listen with your phone screen off.

The Problem with Cloud Converters

Most online video converters require you to upload your massive 2GB video file to their server, which takes forever, and then wait in a queue for conversion.

The Instant Local Solution

Modern web browsers are incredibly powerful. Using an advanced MP4 to MP3 converter, the browser itself can read the video file on your hard drive and strip out the audio track instantly.

Because there is zero uploading involved, a 1-hour video can be converted to an MP3 in mere seconds. Just select your video file, click extract, and the pristine MP3 file will be saved directly to your computer. It is entirely private, unbelievably fast, and completely free.
