Part 1. Can You Put YouTube Music on SanDisk MP3 player Directly?
First, YouTube Music uses an encrypted audio format that isn’t compatible with most MP3 players, including SanDisk models. Second, all music on YouTube Music is protected by content restrictions, which means you can’t play it outside the YouTube Music app or transfer it to unauthorized devices like MP3 players. Even if you download songs through YouTube Music, they are saved as cache files, not standard audio files. This also means once your subscription ends, you lose access to the downloaded music.
The good news is, with the help of a third-party tool, you can download and convert YouTube Music songs to MP3 format. Since MP3 files work with most MP3 players, you’ll then be able to easily transfer and enjoy YouTube Music on SanDisk MP3 player.
