Hey guys,

So I need to download a lot of YouTube videos. What’s the most reliable way of doing so? I use those online downloader sites, but they don't stay up for long and when they do, they are full to the brim with spam and crap.

Is there a good app to do this?

Cheers guys,

James

Most of the online downloaders are based on youtube-dl and it has a huge communuty behind it who keep it working. I doubt you will find anything better

Youtube-dlp for sure. Search on google for "Youtube-dlp" or "Youtube-dl" - it should take you to Github. This is a trusted site for developers.

Scroll down a bit on the page and you will see:

Then click "Windows 64"

Download and then watch this video tutorial:

It is so easy to use. It honestly changed my life I was using crappy untrusted sited before, but then I thought "oh, I will actually try to use this" as I put it off for so long. Little did I know how easy it was.

Downloads videos in seconds perfectly.

Try Wondershare UniConvertor. It is a premium tool that is meant to convert / compress video files but it has multiple functionalities too.

They have this wonderful You Tube video downloader that seamlessly downloads You Tube videos of any quality.

I have their premium license and I have downloaded 4k videos without any issues. So I strongly recommend it from my own experience.

JDownloader is super simple and great to use. Highly recommend you try it.
