YouTube-dl: Open-source YouTube downloader
The tragedy of this software (and many like it) is that despite working exactly as advertised, easily and with a lot of features, because it&#x27;s a quiet open source project without any SEO rigging it will never appear in page 1 of any searches by laymen trying to download videos (&quot;save youtube to hard drive&quot;, &quot;download youtube videos&quot; et al).<p>The amount of crapware I&#x27;ve had to remove from family member&#x27;s PCs just because they wanted to save a video is ridiculous.
