To prevent this from becoming a laundry list of programs and sites that can download YouTube videos, we came up with a few rules for inclusion. The same goes for the helper websites-a change in a site's ad network can also create issues with malware.

If you must download a YouTube video-absolutely need to, just for yourself, and not for dissemination, and not to be a total douche-nozzle-here's how. You simply do not need to download a video most of the time. If you want to share a video, YouTube and most other video sites make it easy, from embedding to emailing to sharing via social networks. Obviously, stealing videos from YouTube is a big no-no. There's a reason YouTube runs ads: People make a living this way. Watching YouTube videos offline through unofficial channels takes money from Google and video creators.
