Because the former is illegal and the latter presumably just against Google policies[1].
But it's true, they are ethically equal.
[1] I am not a lawyer, just like playing one on the Internet
Personally, I hate using these webportals to download youtube. You can use the JavaScript, but I use a Greasemonkey script called YouTube Perfect. It allows for Flash, Mp4, and download.

Just out of curiousity....does this cache just keep building and building until the above is done or does it clear itself at some point. It seems like you could fill a card pretty fast with lots of youtube if it just keeps building. Thank you again.
Concerning the cache -- I remember wondering the same thing, and then looking for a cache purge in the menu, but finding none. So I delete the cache manually, every now and then, since I use mplayer quite often and that simple gui reminds me.
The .flv files from youtube are pretty small, as videos go, ("ls -lhR" shows around 10M each for the ones currently in my N800, (7.7M to 12.7M)), so it's no biggie to delete every few months, depending on how much you use it.

I put "mytube cache" in the tag section, please add whatever you might use in a forum search, if it's different than that, to add some utility to this thread.

There is no US law that says you can watch YouTube videos but not save them (and, remember, often times the copyright holder uploads the content).

Now you have an mp4 video file. I convert mine to digital auto MP4 files with nero burning rom witch is about 3-4 times bigger than an mp3. you can convert them to mp3's if you think space is more important than sound quality
That's decent (128 kbit AAC is usually considered equivalent to 160-192 kbit MP3), but hardly "very high quality".
Any further reencodes you may or have to do will not increase the quality.
edit: Apologies, I didn't see the timestamp on the original post.

All times are GMT. The time now is 06:52.
Just put that bookmark in the bookmark toolbar in mozilla and go to the youtube page with HD video. After u are on that page just click that bookmark and u should see a download file prompt.
Hope that helps. If you want i can give the code for the others to... HQ and regular flv.
