Try this link below:
http://www.savevideodownload.com/download.php

It also has instructions. Simple and easy to use. I am sure it is a gray area when it comes to copyrights!

If you have Firefox, get the DownloadHelper extension. Then it's just a matter of a couple of mouse clicks or a hotkey.

If you want to post a YouTube video on CC, rather than copy/paste the link, you can embed the video right into your post.

Since the court has ordered all of the records of anyone who has even been on YouTube to be turned over to that cable TV company, I wonder if the downloads and uploads won't start to drop off. I think that was the basis of their complaint that people were posting copyrighted videos. But with the millions of hits YouTube has, it should take them a while to sort through everything.

RealPlayer will display a "download this video" tab above the video window while playing. RealPlayer seems to handle a lot of odd-ball codecs better than most of the media players out there. (MS's being the worst)

Ron, I'd have to agree that there will be some people getting "made examples of" coming down the pike... Although the video formats for the internet are never going to compare to the latest distribution media. Note the "DVD
quality" claims, yet it's nowhere near it.

The music publishers are taking a pretty good beating though...
