Can you save Youtube videos?

youtubedownloader works for me.

it was referenced from msn.com, and had good reviews....seems not to have glitched up my machine.

 

I have a real player plugin that lets you save any YouTube video. I think Firefox has their own plugin for that, too. On an android phone, there are a few apps that let you rip the audio, or audio and video from any YouTube video as well.

 

Yes. I have an application on my home PC that allows me to save YouTube videos in about 4 different formats. I'm at work now and don't remember the app name.

 

Keepvid.com

 

This. Also has a converter on it.

 

yup! You can even save the video as an mp3 so you can keep just the audio.

 

That and videodl.org are my go-tos, but I understand there are actually scads of these sites out there. I believe Cuban might have even let a couple others slip on one of his "content monetization = cold fusion/time travel" rants on blogmaverick.

 

I can't be the only person who immediately thought of the guy from the "do you guys know how to post videos to facebook?" commercial.

 

Chrome YouTube Downloader - 2.6.4

This is what I have. Highly recommend it.

 

I prefer keepvid.com because you can save just the audio from vids if you want as mp3, have a choice between saving vids as .flv or .mp4, and can save from other popular video sites and not just youtube.

 

i got all sorts of popups and crap trying to download on my machine when i tried to use keepvid??? Do I need to download the program and get an activation key -- or that just spam?

 

I don't think any one person can save them -- it will take the work of millions, but in the end I still think they are doomed.

 

I use real player to download them.

 

I use Easy youtube video downloader which is a add on for most browsers. It has quality and format options: MP3/FLV/MPEG.
