Brent, I like watching videos on Youtube, but
sometimes I don't have an internet
connection, like
when I'm on a plane or when I don't have
great cell
reception. Is there a way I can download my
favorite
videos from Youtube to my computer or cell
phone so
that I can watch them again and again?
Youtube videos are a huge part of our
culture
and
everyone has their favorites. Whether you
are looking
up sports clips or the latest internet fad,
there is
something for everyone on Youtube.
When I want to download a Youtube
video
for my cell phone or just to have, without
having to
search for it, I use a program called YouTube
downloader. It's free and very easy to use.
Simply type
the Youtube URL into YouTube downloader's search
bar and select what file type you want.
Within minutes
you'll have the video at your fingertips. Try
it out
here.
MP3 files are everywhere, small and quickly made
they are very easy to use. For your favorite
albums
though, you probably still want to pop in a
CD to here
the richest, most complete sound possible.
There is a
way to keep the portability and ease of use
of MP3
files without sacrificing on quality and it's
called FLAC.
FLAC has much higher quality audio than MP3
but it's
a compressed so that it doesn't take up
nearly the
space of a CD track.
We have found an easy way to convert
your
CDs to FLAC with a free program called Exact
Audio
Copy. Download it here. When installing be sure that the audio format
is set to FLAC. During installation you are
also able to
choose if you want to link EAC with a
service
called Freedb. It will save you the hassle of
manually entering album names and song titles
by grabbing them online.
To get your CD rips as accurate as
possible
you're going to want to install this great
add on for
EAC called AccurateRip. This plug-in compares the
audio files you've extracted from the CD with
what
other users have ripped for the same CD. If
it's not
accurate, you may want to consider cleaning
or trying
a different device to rip the CD. With the
help of these
two great programs you will be able to listen
to your
music at its best, anywhere.
