YouTube is the most used video streaming and viewing platform available. This website doesn’t directly offer the feature to download YouTube videos and the question of how to proceed it might appear to any other regular user.
Google has created an excellent service and millions of people use YouTube daily. Using this service, you can watch a mind-boggling array of content. From sports and online gaming, to business, news, and of course funny videos about cats!
But what happens if you don’t have an Internet connection or may have a period where you are offline? During these periods, it is not possible to watch YouTube. For example, let’s say you are traveling and there is no 4G coverage.
During times like these, being able to download from YouTube is a fantastic way to keep watching the content you enjoy. In this article, we look at five simple ways you can download a YouTube video.
Recently we’ve reviewed YouTube-to-MP3 converters, and since the topic of YouTube downloading and converting is quite popular we decided to find the best free YouTube downloaders for our readers. However, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. We wanted to surprise you guys with a long list of decent, effective and nice looking programs to download YouTube videos with, but we can only offer you a list of 3 items. Hard to imagine, but the list of programs we didn’t include is 3 times longer; there are as many as 9 programs that we don’t recommend or that are not free. So, please accept the fact that this list is short not because we are too lazy to make it longer, but because we tried hard and still didn’t find anything better to offer. So here it is – our modest list of the best free YouTube downloaders for Windows.
