I was wondering if anyone saves YouTube clips on their hard drives to replay them later
How do you do it? |

I make a profile and save them that way if thats what you mean. You sign up and add make a playlist. At the bottom of the video youll see that you can make a playlist then add it to your account. |

No bawls I meant without having to open an account with YouTube.
cheezyflier I'm using the 'UnPlug' extension but it saves it as .flv -- how do you save them with windows media?
...any one else who uses IE? |

I use my tv card (pci slot) which can record anything on your screen straight into your hard drive. |

You can use a website called www.vixy.net
Just put the URL of the Youtube clip and it converts it to .AVI or .MPEG or whatever you want it to be and you can download it. I've used it a couple of times, works fine. =) |

Thanks for all the suggestions.
I've tried the vixy.net for two days in a row, no results.
The Windows Media Player is a MONSTER  I can't even find the 'File Menu'.
All those methods seem to be either too complicated or time consuming for most users.
Never mind, I was basically just trying to find out what everlasting impressions YouTube clips leave.
Thank you all |
