Peculiarities
Initially, the service only involves listening to music online - this is exactly what its interface is designed for.
You need to enter the name of the album, composition, group or artist name in the search bar and Yandex will provide all the relevant tracks for listening.
At the same time, the search is carried out in Yandex’s own databases, and not throughout the entire network, therefore the quality of the tracks is maximum, the search is carried out quickly, and the result matches the request as closely as possible.
But in principle, there is a way to download tracks from the service - this function is available with a paid subscription.
If you register for it, you can use the full functionality of the service - not only listen to tracks, but also download them to your device, create playlists, share them, etc.
This is quite convenient, and the subscription is not expensive, but not all users are willing to pay for downloading.
What are the advantages of using Yandex Music for these purposes, while tracks can be downloaded without problems on other resources?
- Good quality music – often the highest quality available on the Internet;
- Ability to download entire albums, discographies, playlists;
- Availability of rare tracks - you can download everything you need at once on one site;
- User-friendly interface , optimized and fast search;

- No duplicates with more than 20 million tracks in the archive;
- Constant regular updates and additions to the track database.
These advantages make the Yandex Music service popular and loved by many users. But all of them know that there are ways to use its full functionality for free.
Where are Yandex music tracks saved?
The songs have been uploaded, but where? By default, the file storage location is in the Downloads folder on your laptop or computer.

The best way to download works is to install an extension for downloading tracks in your browser or use the non-software method described above.

How to download music from Yandex music to your computer via the Yandex browser?
In the process of creating an article I came across a browser for downloading songs, but it did not download. Then I tested the Yandex browser. This program works well with some of the above applications. For example, with such Video Downloader Pro, Skyload, Mediasave.
The most suitable extension for Yandex Browser is Mediasave.

After installation, a note icon will appear in the Yandex browser. How does the application work?
- Open the page with compositions
- Click on the desired song

An extension that allows you to download music from any site
When I was creating this article and looking for information, I came across one very interesting program. The software is called Video Downloader Pro.
To install such an extension, do the following:

When downloading songs in Yandex music through a similar extension, the tracks did not have mp3 names. In order for the computer to reproduce the work, I had to manually register the format.
MediaSave
After installing this application in your browser, no additional manipulations are required to download music. All you have to do is start listening to your favorite song. As soon as Yandex.music starts playing it, a window will appear where MediaSave will offer to download this track.
Pros:
- Easy to install
- Easy to use
Minuses:
- The application renames the track, so instead of the artist and composition you will see a set of numbers and letters
- The quality of music downloaded with this application leaves much to be desired.

If you have installed the add-on, you can now easily download music directly from the site without additional manipulations. You can download individual tracks as well as entire albums or playlists.
However, the disadvantages of the application are about the same as those of MediaSave. The quality of music downloaded using YandexMusic.pro is quite poor.
NETOBSERVER.RU
Alas, the very convenient, functional and publicly available Yandex Music Fisher plugin does not work, and has not been working for quite some time. The project fell victim to the war against piracy - the plugin was first removed from Google Webstore (the installed extension continued to work), then Chrome began to spontaneously disable the plugin (fortunately, it could be activated for the duration of the browser session). In the end, Google Chrome users discovered that Yandex Music Fisher does not work even with the plugin activated and a song added for download (users saw an uninformative “Oops” and the absence of any download progress. Additionally, it became known that the developer of Yandex Music Fisher was “fought "So much so that they removed its code from Github, which caused violent indignation in professional circles on the Internet. What should music lovers who liked this extension so much do in this situation? Let’s answer this difficult question.
Conclusion
When choosing the optimal loading method, you need to build on your own needs and skills.
For downloading several songs, the developer panel is best suited, since it does not require installing extensions that may not work at all or have a bad effect on the functioning of the computer.
However, if you are not confident in your skills in working with web pages in developer mode, then it is better to give preference to extensions.
When choosing between two plugins, it is worth considering that NetVideoHunter , but its significant drawback is that it works exclusively with Mozilla FireFox browsers.
If you have a different browser, then you need to decide whether it is advisable to install Firefox only for the purpose of using the application.
Skyload is also a good extension that meets all the requirements for downloading.
But its significant drawback is that sometimes it does not work with Yandex Music or is completely blocked and unavailable for download.
