Best of the Web: KeepVid, vixy, & WorldCat
KeepVid - Download & save videos from Google Video, YouTube, & more...
vixy.net - Online FLV Converter: Download online videos direct to PC / iPod / PSP
WorldCat [OCLC] - The world's largest library network
- Very slick and straightforward to use. There are some issues with needing the correct codecs to play Google Videos (.avi / .mp4) and using a FLV (Flash Video) player to play YouTube videos (.flv).
See this article on Dvorak's blog for additional video download options.
vixy.net - Online FLV Converter: Download online videos direct to PC / iPod / PSP
- One step beyond KeepVid, vixy automatically downloads (to its own servers) and converts those pesky Flash Video FLV's (YouTube, etc.) to an MPEG4 AVI/MOV/MP4/3GP/MP3 (audio only) file than can more easily be played on a variety of devices.
WorldCat [OCLC] - The world's largest library network
- Search for 1.3 billion items in more than 10,000 libraries worldwide & sort results by proximity to your location
