Is there any free and good alternative to YouTube Downloader?

Osama Javaid asks:

The number 1 most downloaded software on download.com lacks multiple video downloading and conversion before downloading feature. Tell me any good, lightweight and free software with these properties. I only know about two other yet, xvideoservicetheif and atubecatcher. Are there any other good ones you know?

On Linux I use YouTube-dl (which you can compile for Windows). It’s a really simple CLI application.

Specifically for Windows there is Xilsoft YouTube Downloader (which I find to be better than YouTube Downloader. There is also Orbit Downloader and Miro.

What you don’t likea bout xVideoServiceThief? I think it has all the features you’re looking for.

There is also youtube Downloader HD, http://www.makeuseof.com/pages/best-windows-software#download , but I guess it must have more or less same feature set as standard Youtube Downloader

I think you can try wondershare free youtube downloader. It can automatically detects YouTube videos in IE, Firefox and Chrome. And it can get multiple videos off the web at once.
