Yank YouTube/Google/Vimeo videos with VideoDownloader

by Jordan Running on May 22, 2006 at 02:40 PM

For downloading videos from sites like YouTube and Google Video I'm pretty satisfied with KeepVid, but if you spend a lot of time on those sites you might find VideoDownloader handy. It's an extension for Firefox that makes downloading videos from more than 60 (!) web sites a painless two-click operation. It's mostly just a front-end for the web service of the same name, but you needed more icons in your status bar, right?

Neutral

It's nice but it doesn't support peekVid (keepvid doesn't support it either) and I prefer an online solution, so +1 for keepVid.

Dislike
