Set up a virtual machine (Windows 10) on your Mac and use the IDM to download and convert youtube videos for offline usage. IDM is one of the best video downloaders for Windows, but it has some limitations on Mac. Here's a detailed breakdown:

✅ Pros

Blazing Fast Downloads – Uses multi-threading to accelerate downloads.

Browser Integration – Works with Chrome, Edge, Firefox, etc. (via extension).

Resumable Downloads – Pause and resume interrupted downloads.

Batch Downloads – Download multiple videos at once.

High-Quality Support – Grabs 4K, 8K, and 1080p MP4 from YouTube.

Automatic Detection – Recognizes embedded videos on most sites.

❌ Cons
Windows Only – No official Mac version.

Not Free – free 30 days, then paid (~$25).

Thought IDM is not the best youtube mp3 converter for mac, it is still a safe solution for doing this in 2025.
