Although YouTube, one of the leading video-sharing websites, allows you to watch a variety of music videos by popular and local artists, you can also download songs using third-party music downloading sites. Music downloading sites download and convert videos into audio formats such as MP3. Once downloaded, the songs are saved to your computer where you can play them using digital media software. Downloading your favorite songs from YouTube takes minutes to complete.
