Youtube Downloader and Converter by Ali Ameen Wains

YouTube is undoubtedly the biggest video site on the internet and one of the business success stories of the decade. However, with copyrighted content increasingly being removed, a good way to save your favorite clips is to download them onto your hard drive with YouTube Downloader.

Using YouTube Downloader is incredibly easy - just specify the URL for the video you want to download and click the Ok button. It also allows you to convert downloaded videos for iPod, iPhone, PSP, cellphone, Windows Media, XVid and MP3, which is useful for taking your films on the move.

How does YouTube Downloader perform?

The converter in YouTube Downloader is a bit slow but it's a nice add-on to have. One problem you may have is that when you've downloaded the clip, there may be no sound. This is easily remedied by downloading a codec which can be found on the developer's website.

YouTube Downloader's interface may feel a bit confusing at first, and the design could be improved a bit, but in any case the program works fine and does what it says on the tin.
