How to download youtube videos – ZeeramTech

You can download YouTube videos whenever you want. Although the basic version of YouTube only includes downloading a few videos in selected areas.

We will talk about how to download your favorite videos using three methods:

  1. Pay for YouTube Premium
  2. Use the free Mac, Windows, or Linux app
  3. The mysterious and difficult (but very Powerful) Linux command line tool.

Your free choice for downloading YouTube videos (and my favorite): ClipGrab

ZDNET’s editor-in-chief introduced me to this service a few years ago, and I appreciate it. I already used it.

ClipGrab is a free program for Mac, Windows, and Linux users. The developers say it’s open source, but the source code is only available on Linux. But ClipGrab is great. Here’s how to download and use it.

1. Visit ClipGrab.org

Point your browser to ClipGrab.org and press the “Appear all download choices” interface. There you’ll discover joins for Mac, Windows, and Linux. The interfacing of these three is fundamentally the same.

2. Duplicate YouTube video link

Copy the YouTube video you need to download.

3. Launch ClipGrab

Select Dispatch ClipGrab.

6. Select the video format

On ClickGrab, you’ll be able moreover to change options. You can moreover select download resolution. Depending on the video’s unique determination, you’ll select to download the complete determination video.

Another free alternative (with a few added-cost benefits) ClipGrab remains my choice for simple, no-muss, no-fuss YouTube downloading. Produced by Digiarty Program — way better known by its DVD ripper program brand, WinXDVD — WinX Video Converter (for Windows) and MacX Video Converter (for Mac) are freemium video transformation control apparatuses.

Your Installment Choices: YouTube Premium

A YouTube premium membership costs $13.99 per month (up $2 from many months back). YouTube moreover offers a family arrangement for up to 6 clients for $22.99 per month. At last, understudies can subscribe to YouTube Premium for $7.99 per month.

I particularly like that there are no advertisements from Google. There are no pennants. Be that as it may, on the off chance that the YouTube channel needs to put advertisements within the video, YouTube Premium does not channel advertisements from YouTubers. YouTube Premium too has the highlight of downloading videos.

How to download YouTube recordings with YouTube Premium

There is no easy way to change over the downloaded substance to a record, you’ll be able to utilize the video on your desktop, so on the off chance that you need to utilize this video for anything other than observing it offline, you’re out of luckiness It won’t remain.

So you’ll be able to download your recordings in a nearly unusable arrangement for as small as $13.99 per month.

Linux Command Line Options

Linux users have command-line options for downloading YouTube videos (because of course there are). As with all Linux command lines, there are some gray areas here, such as whether this tool works or whether there are better tools available.

In the popular competition of the command line, the first choice is youtube-dl. You can access it from the website, GitHub, or your favorite package manager. It’s worth noting that the GitHub repository was shut down for a while due to DMCA violations, but GitHub later reinstated it. You can read an interesting story about GitHub’s reasons and answers.

Some people say that youtube-dl is old and hasn’t been updated in a while. There is another open-source project on GitHub called yt-dlp, which claims to be a fork of youtube-dl with more features. I haven’t tried it yet, so use it at your own risk.

Both youtube-dl and yt-dlp provide a lot of functionality if you need it. I’ll continue to use ClipGrab because I don’t have time to turn YouTube downloads into a full-time job for a second or third time. But it’s up to you.

Attention

I often receive letters via email and social media from readers who want to use other tools. The correct story is that they saw an ad for the best downloader ever or had a friend/cousin/neighbor who “knew computers” and recommended a special tool.

I also receive ads from sellers who have video downloaders. Since video-downloading technology is available in open libraries and people like to download protected videos, the video-downloading software market is a kind of dumping ground for potential and potentially dishonest sellers.

Downloading protected videos is one of the gray areas where scammers like to play. I generally recommend following the instructions above because we have tested and used them and have not encountered any negative issues.

But if you want to follow the other tips, keep your Spider Awareness alert. If you land on a site with a lot of ads and pop-ups, a lot of attempts to make money from those products, or a request for your credit card number, you’re too far gone.

Let’s see… let’s see.
