If you've been wondering whether or not you can download videos from sites like YouTube, YOU CAN. After finding out one of my favorite videos was pulled, I decided I'd better start downloading the rest before they are gone forever too!

The videos found at YouTube and other video sites aren't in a familiar "file format", so capturing them and saving them on to your computer is not as simple as right-clicking your mouse and choosing "Save As . . ".  Luckily, there is a way to save them to your PC.

Download YouTube Videos to Your PC

Out of the different methods available to download youtube videos, I like YouTube Robot the best. Why? Because it allows you to convert the videos so they'll play on your iPod or Zune. It gives you the power to have "YouTube to Go"!

It also converts to other formats like iPhone Movie, Playstation Portable, .AVI and more.

There are instructions on how to download videos and convert them to your favorite format at the YouTube Robot website. Check out their "Step by Step" Guides.
