Maybe you guys all know this maybe not. There is a way to download those youtube videos. Then of course it downloads to a flash video format .flv which then you need a codec to decode it.

There are several downloaders I've tried a couple. one is
http://www.downloadyoutubevideos.com/

Then you need the codec, unfortunately it has a player too maybe good or bad. You really don't need a player once you have the codec installed for .flv you can use regular windows media player. You do have to associate .flv with windows media player. There are 3 download options basic , standard and full. You need at least standard for .flv or full which adds all kinds of codecs which I did.

This could be a way to save those copyrighted music videos before they take it down or some adult content video. I did a couple of car videos works fine, the player is ok also you might prefer it over windows media player.
