Music Mode for YouTube is a Chromium-based/Firefox extension that allows you to listen to the audio-only on YouTube/YouTube Music by hiding the video component. This can be useful for situations where you want to conserve bandwidth or enjoy the music without the distraction of the video.

To enhance your YouTube music listening experience, activate Music Mode. This extension/add-on allows you to block the video to play only the audio. Additionally, it hides the thumbnails of the videos, skips ads, hides user avatars, disables the "video paused. continue watching?" message, and filters out NSFW content. Music Mode is especially handy for creating a distraction-free environment when listening to music in a professional setting.

Music Mode for YouTube provides a high level of customization, allowing you to individually toggle various features for YouTube, YouTube Music, and embedded YouTube videos. Notably, the extension offers global activation, tab-specific enablement, and temporary use for a single video, granting flexibility in accessing and enjoying music content on YouTube.

Live videos are not blocked; they are just hidden. However, it still blocks the video on YouTube Music and mobile YouTube. The dev is currently trying to work around the changes YouTube recently made.

Music Mode for YouTube can also help save bandwidth, reduce CPU/GPU usage, and save power, especially when using your laptop. It can also be utilized on your mobile device via Kiwi Browser.
