Converting MP4 to MP3

Hi everyone!

Last week a student had an English project where she had to remix a song, and she had the song on YouTube and wanted to convert it to MP3 so she could import it into GarageBand. I now know that there are many ways to do this, but at the time I suggested that she go on www.youtube-mp3.org/ This website is very easy to use, basically you just copy and paste the URL and click convert. I wasn't sure how legal this was (seeing as you're ripping music off of YouTube for free), but I learned of an easy, more legal way!  If you have any MP4, you can import it into Audacity and it will automatically rip the MP3 from it, so then you would be able to use the sound in GarageBand. Also, on the Macs there's a way to change the form of the file simply by renaming it. For example, you might have ____.mp4, when you rename the file you can also highlight over .mp4 and change it to .mp3 and save it like that!
