Found an easy way to save Youtube videos in a variety of file formats.
A Youtube video will have a link such as:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDdI3ch4slE
To save that video to your drive, simply insert “link” in front of youtube in the address. So it would be:
http://www.linkyoutube.com/watch?v=PDdI3ch4slE
You have to allow the Java applet to run.
Happy video archiving!
