    A simple method I like is to copy the video’s link from under “Share” from youtube and paste it at http://www.keepvid.com
    It offers instant video downloads in various formats and quality, and even MP3s. Its simple and fast !!

    I use an addon called bytubd for firefox – check it out, perhaps it works with chrome as well – its just awesome, never seen anything like it, you can download full playlists from YouTube with just a click.

    use IDM or ORBIT or DAP,
    it will download youtube videos, videos from other sites, and all the things that can be downloaded from any browser.
    you don’t need to use too many extensions, it will affect chrome.

    Please checkout this previous question where contributors compiled quite the list of YouTube downloaders for Chrome.

    For some reason, both YouTube downloaders have been pulled from the market. One was pulled within the last two days. There are none that I know of available right now.
