User reviews

Users appreciate the extension's simplicity, speed, and ability to download audio with thumbnails and metadata, especially from SoundCloud. It effectively saves time and supports offline listening. However, many users report that it downloads files in M4A format instead of MP3, which limits compatibility. The removal or loss of YouTube downloading functionality is also noted as a drawback. Occasional download failures and the annoying animation are minor issues. Overall, it's considered a useful and practical tool with room for improvement in format support and reliability.

Pros

Simple and easy to use with just a few clicks.
Downloads audio quickly and saves time compared to manual downloading and converting.
Includes song thumbnails and metadata when downloading.
Works offline to listen to music without internet.
Supports downloading audio from SoundCloud effectively.

Cons

Downloads audio primarily in M4A format instead of MP3, causing compatibility issues for some users.
Occasional failures to download or missing thumbnails with some downloads.
Previously supported YouTube downloads but now limited or removed, causing disappointment.
Some users find the interface animations (like the red light sliding) annoying.

La mejor extensión que use para la descarga de audio en MP3 ya que incluye la miniatura o portada del video, lamentablemente se volvió en convertidor para sound cloud :( y perdió su función para YouTube o al menos a mi la función de descarga en YouTube no esta disponible

High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
