Want to download YouTube videos? Kiss them

Want to download YouTube videos? Kiss them

YouTube is great, of course. It’s the best way to waste your time on a cold Friday afternoon, watching clips of your favorite artist’s concert or facetious excerpts from a silly TV show.
However, sometimes you come across a video that’s worth keeping for later viewing. What to do? Do you see a little “Download” button somewhere? I don’t. You could use shareware like TubeSock, but if you’re cheap like me, you want to keep it free and most of all, Keep It Simple Stupid. That’s right, KISS. Kiss YouTube, and you can download any video.
Here’s the deal: while you’re on the video’s page, you simply add kiss before the youtube.com portion of the URL and you hit enter. That’ll take you to simple website where you can quickly download the .flv file. For examaple, this is the URL of the funny Gates vs. Jobs video after I added kiss to it: http://kissyoutube.com/watch?v=qHO8l-Bd1O4
You’ll need additional (free) software to play and convert the video, but apart from that caveat, kissing YouTube is pretty quick and useful. Give a little love.

Download YouTube Videos

Google has a solid amount of cash in its pockets, but with all the recent lawsuits against YouTube one has to wonder if it’s time to salvage whatever videos you like from the service and save them somewhere where evil attorneys won’t look – your hard drive.
Luckily, there are literally dozens of tools for downloading videos from YouTube and/or converting those YouTube videos to some format other than .flv. It’s hard to pick the best one, as they all have pluses and minuses. Thus, we’ve chosen 23 YouTube downloader tools we’ve found to be actually working. Here they are, categorized according to the platform they work on:
Web based
1. YouTubeX doesn’t have a lot of options, but it’s simple, and it works. It also enables you to share the YouTube video with your friends via e-mail. Unfortunately, all the files are called get_video, and you have to add the .flv extension manually.
www.youtubex.com
2. KeepVid is another simple site. No hassle, works not only for YouTube movies but for a number of other sites, including Google Video, MySpace Video, DailyMotion and others. Again, you have to add the .flv extension by hand.
keepvid.com
3. VideoDownloader is very similar to KeepVid, but supports even more video sharing sites, and it’s also available as a Firefox extension. Just like with KeepVid, all downloads are in .flv format. We recommend MediaCoder for free conversion.

4. YouTube Downloads takes the cake in the longest domain name contest. It also separates itself by using a proxy for downloading videos, which means that you might be able to get videos even if YouTube access is blocked at your workplace or in the country you live. Just search Google for YouTube videos, and copy/paste the URL into YouTube Downloads.

5. Zamzar is an online file format conversion site which can do a lot more than just converting YouTube videos to another format and downloading them to your hard drive, but it’s doing a great job so we had to include it here. Thoroughly tested by us and highly recommended. See the video of it in action here.
