Where else can you find entertainment, education and countless kitty/puppy videos?
But what if you wish to preserve the video, downloading for archive purposes or access it from Internet-incapable devices?
Start by installing youtube-dl:
# apt-get install youtube-dl
Next, navigate to your desired video and copy the URL; e.g.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wtfo43yV8rA
Lastly, execute youtube-dl with specified URL:
$ youtube-dl http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wtfo43yV8rA
The result will be a Macromedia Flash Video file. Convert to your preferred file format using Ffmeg and Bob's Your Uncle.
