There are times when you want to download a youtube video and save it as another format. The reasons for this will vary, but usually it’s so you can edit the video and use it someplace else.

A word of caution….if you decide to download a youtube video for another use, you should get permission from the author of that video. Drop the author an email and ask for permission so you have it in writing.

Ok….here’s the good stuff. I found a free online service that will allow you to download a youtube video and save it in a variety of other formats. Its called Zomzar and it’s an awesome free file conversion service….give it a try!
