Download an online video

Almost any web user sometimes needs to download an online video: to watch it offline, show to kids on a TV set, or just back it up from deletion. If you google “video downloader”, you’ll surely get thousands of search results. And the truth is that the first 30-50 results most likely bring you to a tool that sooner or later will do the video download job. Isn’t it the most important? On the one hand, yes, because the video is downloaded and the problem is solved. On the other hand, there’s a great deal of other factors which surely matter and which distinguish a really good video downloader.

I singled out five such factors: easy-to-use interface, download speed, different output options, number of supported sites, and absence of annoying ads. Top five video downloaders were compared on the basis of these criteria: YouTube Downloader, Freemake Video Downloader, KeepVid, aTube Catcher, and Orbit Downloader. All tools but KeepVid are desktop applications (KeepVid Windows app costs $29), either completely free or free with limited functionality (YouTube Downloader). Let’s go further to the comparison.
