'I still think about YouTube to MP3 converters': X users hilariously reminisce about the old-school download days

If you are a millennial then this video is for you. It is going to take you on a journey into your past and make you nostalgic. It will be awkward if you start crying in your office in the middle of a meeting so read at your own risk. The topic for today is YouTube to MP3 converters.

This was before the time music apps were a thing and the podcast industry wasn't in the scene. The only way to listen to music was to buy it from the market. That's something that hasn't changed. Now instead of buying it from the market everyone subscribes to the apps. YouTube to MP3 converters was a penniless person's magic lamp.

These converters were a bit tricky, apart from fearing viruses the problem with them was that they blurted out the name of the source in the middle of the song. You would be locked in listening to Rihanna asking you to be under her umbrella when suddenly you heard "Kiss FM"
