Listening songs have always been my turn on. I love to listen my favourite tracks while working. It really soaks up all the strains that I used to go through everyday. Although, there are several online music stores are available nowadays, still no one can defeat YouTube on this particular segment. I listen to YouTube on Android a lot as its music stock is colossal and it gets updated on every second. Thousands of people, daily, upload everything from every corner of earth, but all of them are videos.

It’s really a pesky task to surf and listen to the videos. Importantly, why should I need videos when I’m only listening? Moreover, high quality videos take a full year to buffer if you are on a slower internet connection. It also gobbles up the major chunk of data in no time. Thankfully, there are ways to listen to YouTube on Android as mp3.

There are ways to extract the audio from any video file, but in this case it will not help us as we will be streaming files continuously from a web service. Thankfully, there are some awesome applications and they do the exact thing for us. The list I am going to detail under can help you meet your wish.
