I use [http://www.youtubeinmp4.com/] also No installation required......just copy the link

Also web-based and very similar to youtubeinmp4.com: filsh.net .

Everytime I want to save a video or the audio in mp3 I just type "10" between "www." and "youtube", like this: www.10youtube.com/

Check this out! I have it and it works great!

Thanks eddie!! I just did this for a show I wanted keep for offline and it worked perfect and easy.

I have fiddlefkd around trying download ytubes before but I could never get it to work some reason or another (probably me doing it wrong)... but I trust you, so I gave doing it another try and it was smooth as silk. Too easy!! THANKS!!

PS
The downloaded video works perfect in movie maker allowing me to edit the video down. I was wanting 3 songs from a long video and... it is done and dusted. Sweet!

Helpful and fun Eddie

Fun for being able to save so many favs of mine... for fun

And helpful for many things like... once upon a time I lost control of a youtube channel I owned and posted to when they switched things around and made combined google and youtube platforms passwords or something something. I dont know what happened, but I was locked out of my own videos and of course there was no to call or even email about it. So I moved on. At least now I can/am grabbing back my own videos... plus a lot more.

I had not tried doing this for a while, I got discouraged back then and just moved on, but it is nice to see it has been made easy... aka without having to download a bunch of spyware errrr... I guess they call them "apps", to do it


As people said above these are other way of doing it, but after looking them over I like your suggestion best...

but fwiw here is one article where a guy talks about other ways www.techradar.com/news/software/applications/top-5-best-youtube-downloaders-1260778 your idea is listed there too.
