Compared Streaming Audio Capture to Audacity, I found Streaming Audio Capture is easier for me to understand how to download sound from YouTube. I often heard people said that they were using Audacity to download sound from YouTube, but they get sound in bad quality. I will choose Streaming Audio Capture to download sound from YouTube from now on. I have tried it on my computer according to your introduction. It worked well. Thanks.
