WOW, thank you so much. There are lot of underground DJs on YouTube who upload their remixes and you can't find them anywhere else on the internet. Downloading the YouTube video and extracting the sound is the only way to preserve their work and listen to it offline.

This makes things so much easier. Thank you.

You may want to look into youtube-dl (http://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/). This tool seems to limit the bitrate to 64kpbs, while youtube-dl lets you configure the audio quality.
