You can use a YouTube to MP3 converter to get music from a video into your iTunes library for free. Online converters can extract the music file from the video and save it to your computer. Many sites offer the use of an online converter for no charge. Once the file is saved, iTunes will help you to convert it to the AAC format required to play music through the application.
Instructions
1. Access YouTube in your computer's Web browser. Search for a video to convert to a music file.
2. Right-click the URL in the address bar while viewing the video and click "Copy."

4. Paste the YouTube video's URL into the field indicated on the site. Most sites have the field at the top of the site. Click "Convert" to start the process.
5. Click "Download MP3" when prompted. The newly-converted file will be saved to your computer.
6. Launch iTunes and select "File" in the top menu. Choose"Add File to Library." Click the newly-converted file, and then "Open." A dialog box will appear.
