How to save youtube videos (and upload them elsewhere)

After David Zucker's political ad was flagged on youtube.com, some of you asked how to download youtube videos to watch elsewhere. These are instructions for doing so. If you know an easier or more direct method, please post.

1) Copy the url from the youtube page. (I searched for freerepublic to find a worthy sample)

2) Go to http://keepvid.com and paste the youtube url in the space provided

3) Save file by clicking download (part A), then clicking "download link" (part B). Save it

as an .flv extension

4) Download cinemaforge (It's free software you can find online) or similar software.

5) With cinemaforge, convert .flv file to something playable for video sharing websites (wmv, mpeg, etc)

6) Click encode. Your new video is now the proper format for video sharing sites.

7) Upload to another website. (zippyvideos, tinypic, mediamax)

"Only one thing is impossible for God: To find any sense in any copyright law on the planet."

Mark Twain

Twain's words resonate loudly in the internet age. One thing that must be kept in mind when considering content protection in the internet age is the drastic devaluation of content because distribution costs have retreated almost to zero. Content providers, and copyright legal eagles, must construct a new business model to deal with this reality.
