How to Add Music to PowerPoint from YouTube [Tutorial]

Part 1. Can't Add Music to PowerPoint from YouTube?

While YouTube excels as a platform for sharing audio and video content, directly integrating these AAC audio files into PowerPoint presentations poses a challenge. The primary reason for this challenge is that PowerPoint doesn't support AAC playback.

PowerPoint is compatible with a different set of audio formats, such as MP3, WAV, WMA (Windows Media Audio), AU (UX Audio), MIFI and AIFF (Audio Interchange File Format). Attempting to insert AAC files directly into PowerPoint may result in compatibility issues, causing your music to remain inaccessible within your presentation.
