How do I Convert a MPEG music video to a MP3?

[toysrus]

My friend e-mailed me 6 MPEG music videos. Is there a way to transfer them to MP3 so that i can burn these songs to a CD?

Thank you

To be honest, the easiest would be to upload them to youtube, then use http://www.youtube-mp3.org/ on them and it will download and convert to MP3 within a few seconds.

There's other ways to do it on your desktop, but this is pretty quick.

If you have a Mac with Quicktime Pro you can just export it to an MP3. You could also drag it into iMovie and export as an MP3.

Sorry to hear that, TRU! I hope you recover soon! If you don't get a solution, feel free to send them to me, and I'll convert them. I have the necessary software. It's not freeware, or I'd just point you to it.

Thank you! Man I was hit with like 4 seizures in 3 days! Sucked! I was able to transfer 3 of the songs to MP3. But one is a video on dailymotion. Can that be converted to MP3?

Thanks!!!

I use freemake video converter for all my vids. it's free and works flawlessly on my thinkpad running xp sp3.
it has an option for converting to mp3, although I've never used it to do your specific conversion.
might be worth downloading anyway.

Thanks! Someone already converted them for me. Thanks though!
