If It is not being sold anywhere, then, you can use 'YouTube DL', or YouTube DL Gui (Youtube-dlg)' to download the song in either a video file, or as an mp3 file. If you dowloaded a video file, you can easily use a program like 'Format Junkie', and many other multimedia converters, to convert the video file to just an audio file.

I've recently made the decision to upgrade my main computer OS from Windows XP SP3 to Linux Mint v.12 permanently. I am enquiring here about the best option to maintain iTunes Store and Sync capability for my iPad and iPod classic. I note that the ideal recommended solution is to use WINE, however I also note that the for iTunes v.

Failing that I'll have to consider the non-itunes alternatives (libimobiledevice + rhythmbox) as there's no way I'm going to fork out for Windows 7 just for iTunes and there's no legitimate way for me to install OSX on this PC.

Really don't want to have to keep my old pc on standby every time i want to sync. I hope there's a better solution on the way. May 26, 2012 8:52 AM.
