You can quickly download YouTube videos to your computer over the Internet - as a video or audio file. There are several websites that convert the video URLs into downloadable files. We used the YouTube converter from safefrom.net as an example for our instructions . There are also other downloaders such as freemake.com or youtube-converter.de . Alternatively, we will show you a program for the PC with which even more download functions are available to you.
Note: Downloading YouTube videos for personal use is theoretically against the platform's terms of use, but is not currently illegal. The situation is different, however, if you use the downloaded material in a different context, for example in a video, or if you pass it on in some way. The distribution of copyright-protected material without the permission of the author is not allowed..
Another note: The safefrom.net downloader is safe to use. However, the site works with various advertisements which, if clicked, can redirect you to dubious websites. We therefore recommend that you do not click on the pop-up windows that appear and ignore them. In addition, the downloader should not be downloaded as a browser plug-in, only the online function of the converter should be used.
