KeepHD
I referred to in an earlier post half a dozen sites which allow you to download YouTube videos. Now I've found the best one yet: KeepHD.
You can now download high quality or even HD videos from YouTube, just by changing the URL of the YouTube video from "youtube.com" to "keephd.com". You can even download them as mp4 files, and it doesn't require any site registration (like idesktop.tv does).

Enjoy!

Official Youtube Downloading
YouTube in the past few days has cleaned up their UI. Although their font is a little small, it seems overall to be an improvement. Anyway, I was watching a video by KipKay (who is really amazingly awesome), when I noticed a new button on the "Favorite -- Share -- Playlist -- Flag" bar: "Download ($0.99)". Apparently, YouTube partners can now provide the option for viewers to download the videos for a dollar.
YouTube, this is idiotic. Here's why:
1. It's too narrow.
I can only download videos in MP4 format. What about MOV? AVI? FLV?
2. It's too late.
Is YouTube somehow oblivious to the existence of hundreds of websites that already do this? Here are just a few websites that let you download a YouTube file:
3. 99 cents? Are you kidding me?
First off, all the websites I list above are free to use. Second, who pays a dollar for media anymore? Movies are pirated, music is internally recorded, and YouTube videos can be downloaded in a bazillion other ways.
I can hardly see anyone paying for YouTube videos anytime soon. YouTube, go back to ads. This won't work.

.sit Files on a Mac
Running .sit files requires StuffIt Expander, a program which you can get for free on their website...but only after you subscribe to their newsletter.
From now on, just go here. Someone screwed up when they designed the site, and now you can just go directly ot the download page.
