As plenty users wrote us, Free YouTube Download, Free YouTube to YouTube to MP3 and downloading programs by other software vendors often stop working if AVG Accelerator software is ON.
Though AVG Accelerator may be useful for some purposes, it is not needed by DVDVideoSoft programs as they use own acceleration tools. Unfortunately, AVG Accelerator is reported to freeze Internet connection and to interfere in the work of DVDVideoSoft programs leading to their malfunctioning.
AVG Acclerator is distributed as part of AVG AntiVirus. Thus if you have it installed on your PC, the accelerator is enabled by default.
How to disable AVG Accelerator:
Open AVG → Options → Advanced Settings → Web Browsing protection → Online Shield → untick “Enable AVG Accelerator”. Read more on this issue here.

MP3 audio presets “INSANE”, “EXTREME” and “STANDARD” are highly tuned for utmost quality via blind listening tests by The LAME Project. Our programs use these presets by default, whereas other programs do not have them at all or hide them deep in options from users.
“INSANE” preset uses the maximum bit rate (320 kbps) and gives the highest MP3 quality though with unreasonable space.
“EXTREME” is more than just excellent quality (220 – 240 kbps) for very demanding users with hi-tech system for playback of such files.
“STANDARD” produces reasonable size and excellent quality (180 – 190 kbps) which is barely different from the original, thus it is the most recommended preset.
You can find these outstanding presets in the following products:
Free Audio Converter,
Free YouTube to MP3 Converter,
Free Video to MP3 Converter.
