How to Download High Quality YouTube Videos
There are numerous websites and programs that allow you to download high quality (HQ) videos from the YouTube website. YouTube streams its videos in FLV (flash video) format. As of July 2010, YouTube only allows you to download premium videos from the site, making the use of third-party applications a necessity if you want to download video from YouTube. Once you've downloaded the HQ video of your choosing, you can watch the video offline in your FLV media player.
