A good program for downloading music from YouTube is musicjacker, even tags your music too. Plus it works with other sites as well like soundcloud and myspace.

There are also YouTube downloader add-ons for Firefox. You can use any of the hundreds of video downloader programs, or even websites that will download it for you. Some will allow you to download the videos in either flash video (flv), mp4, mp3, etc., others can convert the videos to other file formats also. Even Real Player has the option to download videos from a multitude of websites, and convert the files to other formats.

Her you can look at other links that will give you more options to use to download videos and other media files from different websites: http://www.makeuseof.com/answers/download-videos-youtube/

Use Orbit downloader or

use word “kiss” or “kick” in front of youtube address…this will give option to download in multiple formats…

Eg. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elKxgsrJFhw is the original link then you need to modify it like this …
http://www.kissyoutube.com/watch?v=elKxgsrJFhw ! !

Becky, if you use firefox, like others said that the best way to do it by installing plug ins for the firefox. Lots of plug ins options, for me using flashvideodownloader is the best one, since i also download some other materials from others site which the format is different from youtube. Now, It’s up to you.

If you are using Google Chrome as the browser then you don’t need to download any video separately. Just watch youtube video online and they will be downloaded in the Cache folder of Google Chrome. You just have to rename the file with .flv and the video would be ready to watch.
for Windows 7 and 8, use this path for the files:
C:\Users\(Your system name or user name)\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache

Are 2 ways to do that, 1 is using a software or 2, using the funtion in a webpage.
Like the comment before, use google to find the online ones, but, respect the programs are many “free” programs who install bars and other stuff in your computer.
In you do using a software, exist one named Free Youtube Downloader and they have a program named Free Youtube to MP3, only you need to see the startup screen with comercial but after that, no problem, it’s easy to use and it’s no complicate.
You can find that program in this web…

exist others but this free programs its enoght.

Install the Flashgot plugin or the FreeDownloadManager Firefox.
Both will allow downloading embedded YouTube content and have worked well for me for several years.

For Internet Explorer (PC) users

1) First of all, to make your job easier, you are advised to Get a toolbar for faster access to youtube.com.

2) Click your favourite video clip, you can see the URL in your browser becomes something like this :

3) highlight the URL (like above) and right click the mouse and select “copy”

4) Paste the URL at our download page

5) When the download link shows, You should right-click -> “Save Target As” OR copy and paste the link into your download manager. Note: You must change the file extension to .flv

6) The .flv file is not a common multimedia file, you need a software called FLV player to play it. Click here to get Free FLV Player

7) Install the FLV player into your computer.

8) Select the video clip that you downloaded and play

9) If you want to convert the FLV video and play it in IPod, PSP, mobile phone(3GP format), then you need to download FLV Converter

The easiest way is to install a plugin in your browser. Firefox and Chrome have excellent choices. Some plugins even have the option of taking just the sound of the video as a MP3 file.

Easiest way is to install a Firefox add-on that goes by the name Download helper. Its available @ http://www.downloadhelper.net & once installed, it shows an icon on the browser toolbar. Play any video off Youtube or any other video streaming site (works for audio & pictures as well) & the icon starts rotating. Click the icon & choose desired resolution. It will then start download the media. Note : – Please right click the YouTube video or any other video thats being played in the browser & select STOP DOWNLOADING to make the download process fast.

the best option is go and buy Internet download Manager if not bought earlier and install that software.
thereafter whenever you watch an you tube videos an download button is pop up next to video by clicking on that you can download your video, not only this IDM also provides to choose video quality for downloading.

For free download basic real player version this also allow you to download youtube videos but not provide to choose video quality. Unlike IDM its do not have resume option
