Leech YouTube Movies

Published 06-01-2007 4:11 PM

I think this would be useful to all YouTube junkies. (Actually, lamia asked me about this just this morning.. hehehe.)

Did you ever want to download a copy of a video you see in YouTube, maybe for personal archiving, reference, smooth payback or <gulp> blackmail? Wonder no more because here's a site that does just that. Here's the instructions to get you started;

1. Get the URL of the movie you want to keep. Copy that to your clipboard.
2. Head on to http://keepvid.com/.
3. Paste the URL on the top-most textbox, hit enter!
4. Wait for a few seconds, and wala! You will be presented with a download link.

But wait, there's more!

If it happens that the downloaded file is a .FLV file, you may need an FLV player. Don't worry, the site also has a link to a free copy.

So what are you waiting for! Download na!

NOTE: This is not an advertisement. I am not related to http://keepvid.com/ in any way.

I'm using http://vixy.net to leech youtube videos. Its really cool since you can choose a file format (avi, mov, mp4, 3gp and mp3 ~ neat huh?).

If you use Firefox, there's a better utility that does the same thing.  An add-on called "video downloader".
