How to Listen to YouTube Music Offline with/without Premium

Part 1. Does YouTube Music Work Offline?

Can You Listen to YouTube Music Offline?

So, the burning question arises: "Can you listen to YouTube Music offline?" The answer is a definitive yes, provided you are a YouTube Premium member. YouTube provides two primary service tiers: YouTube Premium and YouTube Free. The significant distinction between these two options lies in the array of Premium benefits, which includes the offline listening experience. With a YouTube Premium subscription, you gain the capability to download both videos and music for offline enjoyment on your mobile devices.

Can You Listen to YouTube Music Offline without Premium?

For those who wish to enjoy offline music without a YouTube Premium subscription, the free tier of YouTube allows you to stream audio content. However, YouTube lacks dedicated desktop applications, which can make offline music listening on your computers a bit challenging, even with a Premium subscription. But fret not, as there's a robust solution accessible to all, irrespective of your subscription status, enabling you to download music from YouTube and relish it offline.
